Job description

Working collaboratively with owners and fellow staff members on a vibrant mixed farm, this role presents an excellent opportunity for individuals with a background in sustainable livestock management. Key responsibilities encompass the daily welfare of poultry (both layers and table birds), goats, and sheep. A certain level of prior experience is necessary, as the successful candidate will be expected to work autonomously, following the farm's established schedule. Nevertheless, training will be provided to address any knowledge gaps, with adaptability and a proactive approach to assuming additional responsibilities being the most valuable qualities for this position.
