The Associate Curator of Mammals will support, both publicly and privately, the principles of the Detroit Zoological Society, maintain a professional manner when dealing with all constituencies, and always preserve a high level of confidentiality.

  • Conduct and/or coordinate research projects.
  • Assist in executing the Living Animal Plan by researching and identifying new mammal species that will meet strategic goals toward increasing our animal population while contributing to AZA conservation programs and creating engaging guest experiences.
  • Contribute to strategic and other institutional planning processes.
  • Contribute to planning for major/minor capital improvement projects for the Mammal Department.
  • Ensure mammal areas exceed AZA accreditation standards and USDA animal welfare standards.
  • Participate in cooperative management programs, such as studbooks, Population Management Plans, Species Survival Plans and Taxon Advisory Groups.
  • Develop and conduct presentations at professional meetings.
  • Conduct educational presentations in both formal and informal settings.
  • Perform other duties as required.

Qualifications
Education and Experience
  • Bachelor’s degree in zoology or a closely related discipline.
  • Four years of experience in the care of captive wildlife.
  • Three years of supervisory experience.
Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities
  • Must have strong decision-making and problem-solving skills, excellent verbal and written communication skills, team building, and effective time management skills.
Preferred
  • Advanced academic achievement.
  • Experience in a curatorial, education or research capacity.

Working Conditions
Work is performed indoors and outdoors with exposure to all seasonal weather conditions, with frequent exposure to and contact with dangerous animals, with risk of zoonotic disease transmission (Hepatitis B, Herpes B, Tuberculosis, Salmonella and others), and with exposure to computer monitors. Weekend and evening work will be required as necessary.
Physical Requirements
The ability to perform principal duties is required. The Associate Curator of Mammals must be able to lift and move objects weighing up to 50 pounds. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable qualified individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions of the job.
