This is a varied, practical role suited to someone who enjoys hands-on work and is comfortable turning their hand to different jobs. The work will vary from day to day depending on what is required across our construction projects and farm.

A full UK driving licence is essential, along with at least two years' experience in construction, groundworks, agriculture or a similar practical role.

Feeding cattle
Handling and moving cattle
Assisting other staff when cattle are being handled or receiving veterinary treatment

The position is permanent PAYE employment and includes:

Weekly pay
Statutory holiday entitlement
Bank holidays
Six-month probationary period
Two weeks' notice by either party during probation
Additional unpaid leave may be agreed with reasonable prior notice

The business normally closes for approximately two weeks over Christmas. Employees should therefore plan their annual leave allowance accordingly.

Pay: £15.00-£18.00 per hour
