About the Role

A fantastic opportunity has arisen to work within an enthusiastic team milking 350 mainly Friesian x Holstein cows in the picturesque county of Leicestershire.


Increase your chances of reaching the interview stage by reading the complete job description and applying promptly.

We require a very enthusiastic and versatile assistant to help run the farm and maximise the amount of milk obtained from grazed grass.

The herd is milked through a modern herringbone parlour with ACR's, ADF, and feeders; paddock grazed for as long as the weather dictates (generally February - Nov) and are housed in cubicles during the winter where they are fed block cut silage. Regular grass measuring takes place on a weekly basis. All data is inputted onto software to give a grass wedge.

The herd is split into a spring and an autumn block, and all replacements are reared on farm.

The successful candidate will be a very enthusiastic person who has previous experience on dairy...
