We look for ‘Role Models’, people who lead and demonstrate every day the values and personality that we believe in.
The values we believe in are:
Guardianship: Our people take their role as protectors of endan¬gered species, wildlife in general and the environment seriously. Whilst we aim to have a fun and humorous working environment, we keep in mind the global importance of what we do.
Innovation: Our people are always looking for new and better ways to do things, from the big (e.g. integrating cattle and wildlife) to the small (e.g. new requisition systems). We are prepared to fail as long as we learn from it.
Authenticity: Our people keep scientifically credible conservation and measurable community benefits at the front of mind in every decision they make – especially the commercial decisions.
The personalities we look for are:
Responsibility: Our people are accountable for their work, taking responsibility for both successes and failures, focusing on long-term results and not just short term tasks.
Inspirational: Our people get the people around them (whether it be their teams, tourists or supports) excited about the value of the wildlife and of communities so that they want to further support our aims. Our people have a sense of humour and make work fun.
Passion: Our people get enthused and excited by conservation and community development
