You’ll play an important part in the day-to-day operations and work closely with your team to help meet production and animal welfare goals.
You’ll receive full training and support, and we’ll encourage you to take the initiative, develop your skills, and support newer team members along the way. This is a hands-on role ideal for someone with a great work ethic and a passion for farming.
Enjoy being part of a culture that values safety, wellbeing, and continuous improvement.
This is a fixed-term role, with an anticipated start or around 01 July to mid-February 2026.
About You You’ll bring a willingness to learn, get stuck in, and contribute to the team’s success. Ideally, you’ll also have:
Experience in a similar dairy farming role (or a strong interest in developing one)
Good communication skills and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team
A proactive attitude with initiative and commitment to animal welfare and health & safety
The ability to coach and support junior or new staff where required
A current NZ restricted or full driver’s licence
Benefits We offer a competitive salary package, including health and life insurance, enhanced parental leave benefits, and up to 4% KiwiSaver matching. You’ll also receive an extra day of leave over Christmas, plus ongoing training and development.
This opportunity comes with a warm two-bedroom home.
