Are you ready for a summer adventure in the heart of North Otago? We're located next to the breathtaking Elephant Rocks, two hours from the adventure havens of Wanaka and Queenstown, and 25 minutes drive from NZ's coolest town, Oamaru!
The Opportunity
We're looking for an enthusiastic person—or a couple—to join our team over the summer to help keep our dairy farms running smoothly. After a busy calving and mating season, we want to give our hardworking team some well-earned time off.
You'll get hands-on with a variety of tasks, including:
Farm Work: Milking, fencing repairs, spraying, and weeding.
General Maintenance: Riparian planting, mowing lawns, and painting.
Specialized Projects: If you have skills in carpentry, building, or other trades, we can tailor projects to your expertise.
Our farms also feature cutting-edge Halter technology, allowing us to remotely manage cows with virtual fencing via a phone app. It's a fantastic opportunity to experience how modern tech is reshaping traditional farming.
What We Offer
Accommodation: A self-contained flat behind our house.
Flexible Schedule: A well-planned roster with plenty of time off to explore.
Competitive Pay: A fair hourly rate for your efforts.
Great Environment: A positive, team-focused workplace.
Ideal Start and Finish Date: December through to February, although flexible.
Who You Are
While some previous dairy farm or animal experience and motorbike riding skills are a bonus, they're not essential. If you have practical skills and a knack for getting stuck in, we'd love to hear from you!
What matters most is that you:
Are a quick learner with a positive attitude.
Work well in a team and communicate clearly in English.
Hold a valid driver's license and have your own transport.
Are eligible to work in New Zealand.
If this sounds like the summer farm experience you're looking for, get in touch today. Let us know about yourself, your skills, and why you'd be a great fit for our team.
