Groom Position or Paid Working Student / Mentorship Position Train Alongside an Olympian in a High-Performance Dressage Program Winters in Wilton, CT Summers in Wellington,FL

Looking for more than just a job? We’re looking for someone hungry to learn, eager to take on responsibility, and ready to become a trusted right-hand within the program. The long-term goal is for the right applicant to become someone the trainer and manager can rely on to confidently oversee the day-to-day operation of the barn when they’re away.

FEI or high-level experience is not required. We’re looking for someone with a positive attitude who is coachable, receptive to feedback, respectful of leadership, and excited to learn.

For the right person, this is much more than a grooming position , it’s an opportunity to build a career, receive mentorship, take on increasing responsibility, and become an integral part of a successful dressage program. If you have your own horse, there may also be the opportunity to bring them with you, continue pursuing your own riding goals, and learn within a professional, competitive environment. This can also be a full time paid groom position if you do not have your own horse and are more interested in grooming/horsemanship skills at home or competitions.
