Dreamworld Corroboree and Dreamworld’s Tiger Island offer unique opportunities to our guests to get up close with our native Australian wildlife and Tigers.

To be considered for positions within Wildlife and Tiger Island, we are looking for candidates with:

• Education in the sciences, for example biology or zoology. Animal science at a tertiary level is not an essential criterion, however, it is considered strongly advantageous showing the candidate is committed to a career working with animals. For wildlife roles at Dreamworld Corroboree, a Certificate III in captive animal management (or progressive study towards) is also considered advantageous.
• Animal experience. We look for people who both volunteer and have paid positions in the industry. Volunteer experience with the RSPCA, local wildlife rescue organisations, wildlife parks and veterinarians are all beneficial to this career path.
• Previous experience working with animals with a premium placed on ‘hands on’ experience. Experience with exotic animals ( in particular with felines) is strongly favoured for Tiger Island Positions.
• Applicants must possess a high degree of physical and mental dexterity and a strong commitment to teamwork, safety and animal welfare.
• Excellent communication, public speaking skills and customer service skills are also essential for Wildlife and Tiger Island roles.

You may also need to consider when planning your studies and future career is that Dreamworld is one of very few interactive tiger facilities in the world (our team consists of just 8 handlers, including a supervisor and manager). Therefore, opportunities to work in such an environment are extremely limited.

As you can imagine, when a vacancy does occur within Dreamworld Corroboree or Tiger Island, the opportunity attracts huge interest internally, locally and nationally. These positions are generally only advertised within the Zoological industry, so you must be working or active within industry to see them.

Our recruitment process generally follows the steps below:

1. Candidate Application Received
   When a candidate submits an application, their profile is added into the applicant pool for review by the responsible hiring manager(s)
2. Shortlisted Candidates are contacted
   This may be for a discussion about your application, or a request for you to book into an individual or group interview session
3. Interviews take place
   Depending on the role, we conduct a mixture of individual interviews with the hiring managers or supervisors, group interview sessions (consisting of a range of information and activities), auditions for performing roles, or other relevant skills-based tests.
4. Reference/Background checks performed
   In most cases, we conduct reference checks on our prospective team members. It’s a good idea to include 2 current references in your application (preferably previous managers or supervisors who can attest to your work performance). Physically demanding roles will require you to undergo a health assessment and for some roles, we will also require external checks to be performed (criminal history etc). You will be advised of the role requirements during the interview process.
5. Successful candidates receive offer of employment
   Our team will call you with an offer
6. Unsuccessful candidates are notified
   We don’t like to leave our candidates hanging – we will let you know by email one way or another the outcome of your application.
   

Due to the volume of applications we receive for our roles, all applications must be submitted online, and we are unable to accept emailed or posted copies of resumes.

Candidates will require a valid email address in order to apply for roles with us at Dreamworld.

It is recommended that you attach a resume to your application, as it is a clear summation of your career history to date. Our online application process will allow you to upload your resume, and will allow you to use this to fill out the online application, saving you time!

If you do not have a resume you can manually insert information about your previous employment, study, qualifications etc. in to your candidate profile.

If there are multiple positions advertised that you are interested in, you are welcome to submit an application for more than one position at a time. Please make sure that you are applying for positions that match your skills and experience, as your application will be considered against the requirements of each role you apply for.

It’s important to ensure that you upload a relevant copy of your CV to each application you submit to ensure that the manager reviewing sees all of the relevant information to support your application.

Each recruitment process is unique, and due to the large volumes of applications that we receive it may take us a number of weeks to progress through our process.
