- Bring your passion for dairy farming and animal welfare  

- Fixed-term From July to end of October

- Join a large team located just outside of Taupo

 

Join Pāmu and work shoulder-to-shoulder with a great team where you can start or grow your dairy career.

 

As a Calf Rearer, your day-to-day activities may consist of feeding calves, picking up calves, administering animal health treatments and processing calves through the cattle yards.

 

We have a robust health and safety regime at Pāmu, and have well maintained, up to date farm equipment that you’ll be able to use.

 

This is a fixed term from early July to end of October 2024.

 

Pinta Dairy Unit is Pāmu’s largest dairy farm, milking 2,100 dairy cows on 850 ha through our 80-bail rotary dairy shed.  This farm has a manager with an open, communicative style – taking care to explain the “why” around decisions so that the team has good context.

 

You will have a positive attitude and willingness to learn looking to develop and grow your dairy career. This is a drive in/drive out position, so reliable transport is a must.

 

You will also have:

·         An exceptional attitude to health and safety and animal welfare

·         Be punctual and reliable

·         The ability to work unsupervised and good communication skills

·         Take pride in your work and surrounding environment

·         Restricted or full driver’s licence

 

We offer an attractive hourly rate, as well as ongoing training to help you reach your personal and career goals. Living in Taupo affords lots of opportunities for a range of recreational activities including fishing, and hunting.

We look forward to seeing your application come through by Sunday 16 June 2024.
