Other livestock experience

I am a hard working individual with a strong work ethic and an eagerness to learn. I have done some cattle milking on my Uncle’s farm in the past, although it has been some time since I graced the shed floor. I am looking for someone who is willing to give me a chance to learn on the job, building on the foundational knowledge from my Level 4 Certificate in Dairy Cattle and practical experience on my Uncle’s farm. I believe my work ethic, determination and enthusiasm would be a strong contribution to a farm and I am keen to get stuck in.

Other Information

Last year I launched my own business, restoring vintage hardwares. It started from my love of vintage tools, from understanding where they have been to restoring them for the next phase of their journey. As a sole trader I set up this business on my own and run it alongside my full-time employment. I source, restore and sell vintage tools online and manage all aspects of the business (from bookkeeping to marketing).

Farming background

Originally from New Zealand, I’ve been working in London for the past couple of years in the Corporate Travel sector, an industry I have been in for over 17 years. Working in this industry has given me the opportunity to work and travel across the globe and equipped me with skills and experiences that I am now keen to transfer to another industry – dairy farming. My Uncle owns a dairy farm in New Zealand that has grown to a herd of approximately 260 cows. I spent much of my youth on the farm and witnessed and experienced first hand the hard work that is required to maintain a successful and productive dairy farm. I have long desired to work in farming, and I feel the time is right for me to make a permanent change!
