Shepherd Wanted – Central Otago Sheep & Beef Station We're a family-owned and operated beef and sheep farm set in stunning countryside, just 10 minutes from Omakau and 30 minutes from the beautiful town of Alexandra.  Running 13,000 stock units across 809ha of flat to rising country, we're looking for someone who considers themselves a good stockman with plenty of experience. Our sheep are fine wool, our cattle are crossbreeds, there's real variety and growth in what we do. We have some pivot irrigation, but the bulk of the work is all forms of stock work — crutching, drafting, moving stock — as well as moving break fences, general maintenance, tractor work and much more.
