We're looking for a junior stable hand to join our team!
We are a small boutique riding school and training centre that caters to mostly beginners and nervous riders, but also teaches riders of all levels across a range of disciplines.
We are looking for a junior (or senior) to work a handful of hours throughout the week. This is a casual position that is best suited to someone after school for an hour or two, or a couple of days a week for an hour or two. More hours and days can open up to the right person.
Your job isn't glamorous. Your main role will be to clean paddocks. A job that should take approx 15-20 mins a paddock, however we expect it to take an hour (if you work fast you can do other things)
Other tasks you may be required to do
* Clean paddocks
*Clean yards
* Fill waters
* Feed out dinner feeds and/or hay
* Prepare school horses for lessons or get them situated after lessons for dinner and paddock
*Rug and unrug horses
* Lunge or exercise horses if capable
An opportunity to ride and school horses is also available to the right person as a bonus
Award wage offered plus perks such as riding or schooling horses or free or discounted lessons.
What we want!
A motivated person who doesn't necessarily need horse experience, as we can teach you that. We want someone who will show up and get the job done.
Someone who can read the job list and prioritise tasks based on if we are running lessons or training
Reliable transport is preferred, and we also have buses stop at our driveway for after school work. Best suited to someone local or is wanting the experience.
We don't mind if you snuggle the cats or pat the horses. We might send you out with a brush in hand to groom the horses in their paddocks, but we are not looking for someone who wants to take cute selfies with the horses or carry the cats around while you clean the paddocks. We definitely don't mind if after your job is done you want to stay and cuddle and play with the barn cats. We get it, they are cute.
We want someone who isn't afraid to kick a little s**t around. There will be flies, mosquitoes and bugs. It's a farm property. There is also scorching sun and sometimes rain. If your likely to melt in the rain or shrivel in the sun, you probably want to work indoors.
What do you need for the job... Other than a proactive and motivated personality, we supply all the gear. If you require gloves, let us know and we can get gloves.
You will need to have enclosed footwear and safe, suitable clothing.
We can offer a couple of days a week (afternoons after school is ideal), most days of the week are on offer
If you're a teen or know a teen who is interested in working and getting paid. (Few hours a week) Please send us a message with your resume, cover letter and we can start to discussion.
