A fantastic opportunity has arisen to work within an enthusiastic team milking 300 mainly Friesian x Holstein cows in the picturesque South Lakes region.

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

The herd is milked through a 24:48 HB parlour with ACR's 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 successful candidate will be a very enthusiastic person who has previous experience on dairy farms and has very high standards in whatever they do. They must also be able to think for themselves and be highly motivated. There is scope for either a senior person on the farm or an up-and coming 2IC as the farmer can be flexible with their time and input into the running of the farm.

In return for your efforts, we offer a highly competitive salary with bonus schemes, regular time off and accommodation free from rent. The house available is a lovely 3- bedroom family house within walking distance of the farm, which is double glazed and has central heating.
