Due to a change in circumstances our current manager is unable to continue with us. We are looking for a farm manager (or could suit a competent 2IC) to help run our 58ha farm in Tirohanga (between Taupo and Tokoroa) milking 175 crossbred cows in a spring calving system (3 year average production of 82,877kgMS). We have a 16 ASHB with in shed feeding, and a support block used for wintering our herd and producing lucerne silage for the milking platform. A modern 2 bedroom home is available on farm.
The ideal member of our team is able to work unsupervised, have good time management skills and initiative, and able to follow a plan. Observation for mating and animal health are very important to us, as is communication with the owners (who live on farm).
