• A seasoned and effective communicator, you’ll be able to demonstrate first-class written and verbal skills enabling you to communicate at all levels with ease.
• Passionate about the welfare of animals, you’ll be highly motivated to play a vital role in bringing an end to some of cruellest activities practiced in the name of sport.
