Head Shepherd.

Located in Caputh, Perthshire, within 20 minutes of Dunkeld, Blairgowrie

and Perth.

The farming enterprise is predominantly an arable one over 2000 acres. In recent years

we have reintroduced mixed grass leys into the rotation without nitrogen fertiliser. Our

closed flock of 1450 Llyn x Shetland ewes is pasture reared with lambs born outside and

fattened off grass. Our sires consist of Aberfield, NZ Suffolk, and Llyn.

We are seeking to employ a full-time shepherd to join our estate team and manage our

sheep enterprise. This is a permanent long-term role for somebody wishing to progress

their agricultural career and would suit someone with a keen eye for sheep welfare,

associated computerised record keeping and an interest in low input sustainable

farming practices.

Competitive salary and family house.

Closing date 20th September.
