We are looking for a keen and capable person who has an eye for detail, is well presented, confident and efficient in their work.
We have a medium sized dressage training centre and warmblood breeding program with around 10-15 horses in work and 4 stallions standing at stud. Each season we have between 10-15 foals and use either AI or Embryo Transfer.

The job will suit someone who has a keen interest in dressage horses.

A detailed and comprehensive remuneration package can be discussed upon application.
