Dairy Herd Manager

Dobcross Hall, Carlisle, Cumbria

750-Cow Herd | Modern, Well-Invested Dairy | Progressive Farming Business

We are looking for an experienced and motivated Dairy Herd Manager to join our progressive dairy farming business at Dobcross Hall, just outside Carlisle, Cumbria. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who takes pride in herd health, fertility, cow welfare and performance, and who wants to play an important role within a well-established and highly skilled team.

Working alongside the farm owners and wider management team, you will have responsibility for the day-to-day management of the herd and will play a key role in maintaining and improving herd performance and milk quality.

The Farm

750-cow all-year-round calving herd
Average herd yield of approximately 12,000 litres
Three-times-a-day milking through a 60-point GEA rotary
Modern, well-invested and efficient facilities
High standards of cow welfare, herd health and milk quality
Milk supplied on an Arla Asda-aligned contract

The Role

The Dairy Herd Manager will take a leading role in the day-to-day management of the herd, with particular responsibility for:

Managing herd health, fertility and breeding programmes, using Uniform Agri
Monitoring herd performance and identifying opportunities for improvement
Managing dry cows, calving cows and transition groups
Overseeing breeding performance and working closely with the veterinary and breeding teams
AI experience would be an advantage
Foot trimming experience would also be beneficial
Taking an active role in the milking rota
Leading and supporting the day team, ensuring daily tasks are completed to a high standard
Maintaining high standards of cow care, cleanliness and welfare
Accurate recording and monitoring of herd information
Working as part of the wider farm team to achieve the business's production and performance targets
Helping to maintain a safe, clean and efficient working environment

The role will involve milking every other weekend, together with normal day-to-day herd management responsibilities.

About You

We are looking for someone who:

Has proven experience in dairy herd management and livestock husbandry
Has a genuine interest in cows and achieving high standards of herd performance
Is confident working independently and making decisions
Is a strong team player who is willing to get involved and lead by example
Has a proactive, positive and can-do attitude
Has good attention to detail and takes pride in their work
Is comfortable working with herd management data and technology
Has AI and/or foot trimming experience — beneficial but not essential
Is keen to continue learning and developing their skills
Is confident communicating with colleagues, vets, consultants and other farm visitors

We regularly welcome school and educational visits to the farm, so being comfortable talking to visitors and explaining modern dairy farming would be an advantage.

This position would also suit an ambitious individual who wants to develop their career within a large-scale, progressive dairy business.

A full driving licence and the right to work in the UK are essential. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer visa sponsorship.

What We Offer

Competitive salary, depending on experience and ability
Structured working pattern designed to provide a good work-life balance
Approximately 55 hours per week, normal working hours- 5am to 4.30pm.
10 days on / 4 days off
One full day off each week
Every other weekend off
Supportive and experienced farm team
Opportunities for training, development and career progression
Modern facilities and well-invested equipment
Accommodation available for the right candidate
Excellent local schools and the benefits of living in a rural location close to Carlisle

Interested?

If you are an experienced dairy herd manager looking for the opportunity to become an important part of a progressive, well-invested and ambitious dairy business, we would be very pleased to hear from you.

For an informal discussion and the position, please contact Ian Holliday on 07809 369631 or via email @ [email protected]

All applications will be treated in confidence.
