Calving Season Assistant Wanted

Job Description

We are looking for a reliable and motivated Calving Season Assistant to join our dairy farm team from 1st August until mid-October, with the possibility of longer work if needed.

This is a short-term seasonal role during our busy calving period and would suit someone who has an interest in dairy farming and is willing to learn.

The role will involve:

  • Picking up and caring for calves
