Looking for your next long-term home in dairy farming?
We are now looking for an experienced 2IC to join our brand new 1,500-cow conversion in Tarras.
Our current 2IC is having to relocate due to an unexpected change in family circumstances, creating an opportunity for the right person to join us from late September.
Weâre looking for someone who wants to settle in, become part of the team and grow with the business â ideally someone looking for a long-term move for themselves and their family.
Whatâs important to us:
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Strong pasture management skills
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Ability to lead and organise a team
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Good problem-solving and decision-making
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Clear, honest communication
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Strong stockmanship and animal health skills
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Someone who takes ownership and gets stuck in
Youâll work directly alongside the contract milker and need to be confident taking responsibility for the farm when heâs away.
The lifestyle:
Accommodation is a brand-new 4-bedroom G.J. Gardner home, built to a high standard, with a log burner, heat pump, attached garage with internal access and amazing elevated views.
Located in Tarras, you're close to both WÄnaka and Cromwell, with the local primary school just down the road and high schools accessible by school bus.
Weâre building something for the long term and want someone who wants to be part of it.
1,500 cows | 510ha | 80-bale Waikato rotary | Protrack | In-shed feeding | Fully irrigated
Competitive package based on experience
If you're an experienced 2IC Â and ready to step up, weâd like to hear from you.
