Relief Milker - Milk for Rent Position (small cottage)

Job Description

Hello!

We are looking for a part time relief milker, ideally someone who would also be looking for accommodation. 

We are milking 410 cows through a 36 aside herringbone shed. There is a lot of flexibility in how we set up the arrangement in terms of number of milkings per week and what days are worked. We are happy to work around other work/study commitments. 

The accommodation is a small 1 bedroom cottage, located on farm. It is not suitable for a family, children or dogs. Ideally it is probably best for a single person. We have the option of furnishing it. 

We require:

  • A clean criminal record
  • Two referees
  • Candidates must be drug free
  • Some familiarity with the dairy industry would be ideal. 

References are available from previous employees/tenants. 

If this sounds ideal or if you would like to know more, please don't hesitate to get in contact
