Morrison Farming is a dynamic, family farming business, consisting of an intensive finishing property and a hill-country breeding property, both located north of Marton in the Rangitikei.
The successful applicant will largely be based on our finishing property, Fern Flats. But the right applicant will also be involved on our nearby hill country property, Mangara.
Performance recording is a key focus for Morrison Farming, as well as growing stock on a wide variety of forage.
We are looking for candidates who are a team-player, friendly, have a positive attitude, attention to detail and recording, and enjoy learning. The position is tailored toward someone with some level of tertiary training through an ITO or Agricultural College or farm experience.
This role involves primarily stock work and general farm maintenance as required.
The successful applicants will ideally display:
• Confidence when working with cattle in the yards, moving cattle on-farm and calving.
• Experience with general sheep-work.
• Some experience and skill with fencing, chainsaw operation, tractor work and general farm maintenance and repairs.
• Willingness to take instructions, as well as work independently.
• Punctuality, honesty, reliability and adherence to the Morrison Farming Health & Safety Policy.
• A good working dog is desirable, but not essential.
• A readiness to work additional hours when necessary.
We offer a structured Monday to Friday working week, with one weekend on a month.
The position includes accommodation on-farm.
Morrison Farming supports ongoing training opportunities. A competitive salary package will be negotiated based on experience.
A full New Zealand Driver’s Licence is required.
Morrison Farming is a smoke free workplace.
