The Big Cat Sanctuary is looking for enthusiastic and reliable Events Team Assistants to support our busy calendar of events.

· Someone reliable, punctual, and able to follow directions
· Comfortable with physical, hands-on tasks in a fast-paced environment
· Flexibility to work evenings, weekends, and irregular hours depending on event schedules
· Previous experience in events or hospitality would be an advantage, but not essential

· Cross-departmental communication and collaboration experience is essential
Why Join Us?
· Flexible, casual work in a unique and inspiring setting
· Opportunity to gain experience in events while supporting wildlife conservation
· Be part of a welcoming and passionate team
