Equal Opportunity Employment

At the Chicago Zoological Society, we are committed to providing equal employment opportunities to all employees and qualified applicants, and we do not discriminate against any employee or applicant because of race, color, religion, age, gender, national origin, veteran status, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity or any non-job-related disability, as required by law.

We strive to hire and advance the best talent we can find solely based on job-related factors, knowledge, experience, skills, education, training, background, and abilities. In support of our diversity initiative, we take action to employ and advance women, people of color, people with disabilities and protected veterans, through our training, outreach and recruitment efforts and other means.
