Exciting Dairy Assistant Role Across Two Farms

Full Time
southland, new zealand
BetapahuWe are looking for a dairy assistant to cover two neighbouring farms in the Edendale area. This could be the first step in a long and prosperous career in farming and a future as a farm owner.
We take the job of being good famers very seriously. Sure, the outcome is producing plenty of quality milk solids but we need to make sure the cows are well looked after. That means growing some good grass for them to feed on, milking and taking care of their general welfare. They're valuable team members and we look after them. Speaking of team members, you’ll be working with a few of the two legged kind too. So you’ll need to be a team player and get along with folk.
Then there’s the environment. We do things right here. So each farm has a plan and that’s the starting point. From there we make more improvements and focus on sustainable farming practices so we can be good custodians of the land.
We’ve some machinery and general farm maintenance that you’ll need to look after. Increasingly, technology is playing a part in farming and you’ll be exposed to that too.
We’ve got a track record of supporting personal growth and development. And we have a goal of seeing our team members progress through to farm ownership. So it goes without saying that we offer some great training opportunities, both on and off the farm.
You’ll be the type that likes to roll your sleeves up, get stuck in, challenge yourself and think differently. The type that’s smart, inquisitive and engaged. You’ll be an active person, energetic and approach work with a sense of fun and a real ‘can-do’ attitude. We also need you to be currently residing in NZ and be legally able to work in NZ.

In my previous role on a dairy farm (about 4 months), I gained valuable experience in calf rearing and milking, as well as general farm operations. Additionally, I worked for a vet clinic during the disbudding season, where I further developed my animal handling and communication skills. Growing up around farms, I am proficient in building fences and using a variety of farm equipment, making me confident in managing the day-to-day tasks required for a range of roles. Even if I am not qualified for the role you’re looking to fill, I am a very quick learner and it will take no time for me to become proficient in the tasks you are looking to cover.17

Hi, my name is Toby Smith and I am a year 12 student at Lincoln High School that is keen to get into farming once I finish high school. In the meantime I am keen to gain as much experience as I can. I have some experience working on dairy farms as I helped out over the calving season last year. Some of the jobs I did were picking up new calves, drafting cows, milking, tractor driving, feeding out, shifting and setting breaks, and shifting mobs. Any part time work would be greatly appreciated.31

Ag Assist made a difference
"Highly recommend to others in the agri sector."
Selene H
Dairy Farmer, Canterbury
I book workers for when I need them!
“Ag Assist transformed our farm’s staffing requirements. As a part-time labour solution, it’s economically sound for us, I don’t have to go looking for jobs to fill in their day. I book for exactly what and when I require them, and that is what we pay for!”
Stuart M
Sheep & Beef Farmer, Canterbury
Ag Assist takes the guesswork out of finding workers.
“Seeing their profile, other farmer comments and ratings just puts a lot of trust in the system. It’s a great platform to find short-term workers, to fill holes or even seasonal work. Be confident knowing that there’s quality workers on there to help you out in the time of need.“
Vaughan B
Dairy Farmer, Canterbury
Attracting new skilled staff on a short-term basis was impossible!
“Ag Assist allowed us to fill these positions temporarily with skilled, motivated, and reliable staff at short notice. The platform was easy to use and allowed us to see the pool of available workers and then book a couple of workers who best suited our needs, to carry us through to the end of the season.”
Anna
Ag Assist Worker
I want to connect with a network of Canterbury farms.
“Being from Waikato, Ag Assist allowed me to gain practical experience alongside my studies by giving me flexibility to choose my work hours. It helped facilitate my on-farm learning but also kept my parents pleased with my commitment to study!”
Will
Ag Assist Worker
I found a way to get my farming fix and earn money.
“Balancing my 9 – 5 job with my passion for farming was made easy with Ag Assist. The flexibility of work hours allowed me to milk before and after work satisfying my itch while earning extra income. Plus working on various farm allowed me to experience different operations firsthand, enriching my knowledge and skills in the field.”
Jenna M
Dairy Farmer, Canterbury
I plan and book staff in advance.
“Three days prior to mating my Herd Manager broke his ankle. After reworking my staffing roster I needed some supplementary help to cover gaps. The Ag Assist availability calendar allowed me to plan and book staff in advance, which was instant peace of mind. No housing was required, purely drive in/ drive out.”
Reece M
Ag Assist Worker
I have built my network and connections in Agriculture.
“I have been with Ag Assist from the beginning. Studying an agricultural degree Ag Assist has given me opportunities to work on a variety of properties and grow my skills, expertise and networks in dairy, sheep & beef and horticultural industries.”
