We are looking for a dedicated and passionate individual to join our team on a 280-cow dairy unit near Stratford-Upon-Avon. This is a fantastic opportunity to work with a well-established farm that has excellent modern facilities.
Farm Details:
- The farm was established on a greenfield site in 2004 and is equipped with top-of-the-line infrastructure, including new housing, auto scrapers, and a fully computerized Dairymaster 14/28 Swiftflo parlour with auto drafting, backing gate, Moo Monitor, and heat detection.
- The herd follows an autumn calving system, is housed during winter, and grazed on a rotational paddock system during the summer.
- Milk is sold via the ARLA C.A.R.E contract, so attention to detail is essential. Replacements are reared on-site.
Key Responsibilities:
- TMR feeding/ration management and overseeing the nutrition of the herd
- Involvement in all areas of farm management, including milking, calving, and calf rearing
- Experience with tractors and telehandlers is preferred, but training can be provided for the right candidate

Accommodation:
