Customer Service Attendant
Jodie joined the Australia Zoo Receptionite crew in June 2009. After the initial shell shock of working in the wildest place on earth, Jodie has settled in really well and loves ensuring all our patrons have the correct information to maximise their day! Every day at the Zoo is the ultimate wildlife adventure and Jodie loves being a part of the team!
Coming from the hospitality/building industry has given Jodie the perfect preparation to enter our guest relations team. Being a Taurean also gives Jodie the determination, reliability and persistence to get the job done.
When Jodie is enjoying her free time she loves hanging out with the two males in her life, her fiancé Tyler and the four-legged kind; her dog Busta. Jodie enjoys restoring her Valiant, camping at the beach and four wheel driving.

Brodin is one of our newest additions to the team. When she was just 8 years old, practicing her jaw roping skills on a pillow, she knew that she would love to work at Australia Zoo. Whether it's seeing families enjoying their day, or walking past all of the beautiful animals each morning, there's no better place to work! She is currently studying to be a midwife and undertaking a certificate to become a qualified horse riding instructor!
Her favourite animal at the Zoo is the Tiger! Visiting Australia Zoo with her annual pass during her first week living in Australia, she watched the tigers leaping up a pole in the Crocoseum while their keepers spoke enthusiastically about their conservation. She's loved them ever since!
