Job Description

Milker – Henley, Otago

We’re on the lookout for a reliable and motivated Milker to join our farm located in Henley,  5 minutes from Dunedin Airport. We milk 280 cows through a herringbone shed.

What we’re looking for:

  • A keen eye for detail – especially when it comes to spotting mastitis or unwell animals. We also use Cowmanager eartags.
  • Willingness to follow and contribute to the smooth running of the shed, including routine tasks like putting water through, shed hygiene and cleaning up properly after milking.
  • A strong work ethic and reliability are essential.

This is a drive-in position.
