Job Description

Weekend Relief Milker – Five Forks, North Otago

We are looking for a reliable and capable relief milker to help with weekend milkings on our dairy farm at Five Forks, North Otago.

We are milking approximately 600 cows through a 40-aside herringbone shed.

This is a drive-in position and would ideally suit someone local looking for regular weekend work.

Hours:

  • Morning milking: 5:00am – 8:30am
  • Afternoon milking: 2:00pm – 4:30pm
  • Weekend work

The role will primarily involve milking and general dairy shed duties.

Previous dairy or milking experience would be an advantage; however, training can be provided for the right person. We are looking for someone who is reliable, has a good attitude, is confident around livestock and can work independently once trained.

Good hourly rate for the right person.

To apply, please contact Aidan via email with a brief introduction and any relevant experience.
