Who we are

NZ Dairy Careers is based in Mid Canterbury. We are committed to retaining and developing people within the dairy industry. We pride ourselves on matching candidates with the right employer to develop skilled and motivated employees in the dairy industry.

We support all our candidates while on farm and provide mentoring, pastoral care and training and development opportunities. This close involvement with the employer and candidate guarantees favourable results and supports the long-term growth of New Zealand’s dairy industry.

 

What we need

Based in South Canterbury, a beautiful rolling hill farm close to Oamaru

This could be your first step into a career in dairy with a small family owned farm  milking 550 cows through a herringbone. A dairy assistant is a hands-on role,  and you will learn on farm and begin to gain valuable experience.

This role will be anything from feeding cows and milk harvesting, to helping with animal health and environmental management to improve the farm’s environmental impact.

You don’t need any formal training, as you’ll receive plenty of on-the-job training, so if you have grown up in town and have no background in farming, this could be for you.

Great roster, own accommodation and salary starting from $48,000
