Vacancy: temporary work calving season 2026
The calving season starts in Ireland at the end of January/ beginning of February. This means for a lot of dairy farmers in Ireland that all cows will calve within a period of 6 to 8 weeks.
That requires a lot of extra help, and that’s why we need you!
Specifications
The vacancy
What are we looking for?
We’re looking for extra help for a wide variety of dairy farmers during this period. This can be small family farms with 100 cows to large farms with 650 cows, and everything in between.
Do you have experience on a dairy farm and are you available in January or the beginning of February for a great adventure?
Then come to Ireland during this period!
We have build a big network with very friendly and nice dairy farmers who need temporary help during calving season.
We discuss your work experience and your preferences in a videocall, and we make sure that we match you to the farm that suits you very well.
The farmer will have an accommodation available for you, no worries about that.
Minimum stay is 8 weeks, shorter is not possible.
Many farmers are also looking for extra help until the summer, if you want to stay longer that’s also possible.
Experience on a dairy farm or with calves (beef) is necessary.
Besides hard work, you’ll also have time to explore the area and do fun things at each farm. And… in mid-March, you’ll experience the national holiday of St. Patrick’s Day. A real event in Ireland!
And perhaps also good to know: if you’re interested, we’ll do our very best to connect you with other temporary workers in your area.
