Motivated and experienced Farm Assistant wanted!

Job Description

**we are not accredited employers - please don’t apply if this is a requirement for you **

We are looking for a motivated, reliable person to join us milking 650 cows through a 47ASHB on a flat-rolling 5km from Tirau for the remainder of the 26/27 season and beyond for the right fit!
We value honesty and punctuality and want to find someone with a passion for the dairy industry who knows how important reliability is in this role!
Ideally you will have a good few years experience on a dairy farm - you may be required to take charge when the 2IC is away. 

You will be keen to learn and ideally know the basics. In return we will offer you a great remuneration package, a good roster and flexibility around commitments. We aim to give our staff the right work-life balance.
The successful applicant will be drug free, HONEST, and tidy around the house.

There will be plenty of opportunity for learning on farm - we have a feed pad, irrigation, and a youngstock block to look after. We may also have relief milking and calf rearing available for a partner. If this ticks all your boxes and you tick ours - apply now!
