Job Description

We’re looking for someone to jump on board and help out on our dairy farm. Someone down to earth who enjoys farming, values a good lifestyle outside of work, and is willing to step up when needed.

We milk 550 cows through a modern shed with cup removers, collars and auto drafting. The farm’s irrigated, well set up, and has good gear and machinery to work with.

10mins from Featherston, Martinborough and Greytown 

You’ll get stuck into a bit of everything — milking, feeding out, shifting stock, animal health, tractor work and general day to day farm jobs. You’ll be working alongside the owner, so good communication, honesty and a decent attitude go a long way.

Comes with a tidy 3-bedroom house with a fire and heat pump.

Would suit someone who enjoys farming, can work unsupervised when needed, but also likes a laugh and being part of a good crew. Experience is handy.

I am an accredited employer with a job token, (just need two years experience)
