The vacancy

Who are we looking for?

You know better than anyone how things work on a dairy farm. You are like a fish in water in the milking parlour, you are good with cows and calves and perhaps most importantly; you see the work, tackle it and arrange it. Is this your attitude?

or

• experience on a dairy farm and you are ready for the next step;
• you are proactive, see the work and act on it;
• you are eager to learn;
• and you are holding a clear driver’s license, then this is you job!

The farm has modern facilities and that is very pleasant to work with, isn’t it?
