A New role on a 600 cow housed Dairy Unit in beautiful surroundings between the Coast and Exmoor in North Devon.
This is a great opportunity for a dairy farming family to work in a fantastic location, with great facilities and a great team. As this is a new role, the requirements for the successful applicant can be quite flexible, but the non negotiables are someone who is a great cow person, has a great sense of humour, has a strong work ethic and is ambitious. It's a 50 hour week over 5 days with alternate weekends. Milking will be 3 or 4 sessions a week.
We have a well resourced unit - newly built in 2015 - with a 40:40 herringbone parlour and lots of added extras across the whole unit. The best bit is the house which is 10 minutes from the dairy unit. It is a 3 bed part of a traditional Devon longhouse on the edge of Exmoor. Great views of amazing countryside with two great primary schools within 5 minutes drive.
We will pay you well, but will want plenty in return. The herd (flying) has great potential, and it will be yours to drive alongside a well established senior herdsman and a young UK team with ambitious owners.
We are prepared to wait for the right person, but this is an opportunity not to be missed. If you wanty to upgarde your skill base, then AI, Foot Trimming and Nutrition training will be provided.
