Job Details

We're recruiting for a Pig Manager for a family-run farming business in Dorset DT2.

The performance-driven farm seeks to employ a hands-on, performance-driven individual who can motivate and lead a team of four. 

This position ideally suits someone with 5+ years of experience, but the producer would look at less experienced applicants and those looking to step up to be a manager. 
A proven track record and a strong work ethic to maintain an existing high performance is a must. 

The pig unit has 1100 sows with progeny up to 7kg, fully indoor systems with automatic wet feed systems and fully ventilated housing.


Candidates need to demonstrate: 

  • Experience working with and managing livestock is essential
  • Motivation with the desire for continuous improvement
  • Excellent interpersonal skills and ability to work as a team
  • Passion for farming, determination and capability with an excellent eye for detail
  • Experience in working within a fast-paced environment
  • Willingness to learn new skills
  • Good understanding of IT systems, including MS Word and Excel (would be an advantage)
  • Good time management skills

  

Starting Salary: From £40,000 DOE

Plus: 

  • 28 days holiday, including bank holidays
  • Work Place Pension
  • 3-bed family housing

 

Hours: 12 days on, two days off every 2nd weekend.

 

For further details, please call Roadhogs Recruitment Ltd.

All applications are dealt with in strict confidence, and our applicant service is free. 

Currently, we can only accept applications from UK or EU nationals with the right to work in the UK.
