SHEPHERD

Looking for a change? Want to take your shepherding skills to the next level and grow your farming career?

Mount Linton Station in Western Southland is looking for a shepherd to join the team.

The 12,145ha station stretches from easy rolling country through to high country at the foothills of the Takitimus and runs both large-scale Romney and Angus breeding alongside commercial operations.

Ideally, you’ll have a few well-trained dogs and some shepherding experience, but we’re happy to consider less experienced people with the right attitude. The station has a reputation for supporting its staff, with genuine opportunities to progress within the operation.

You’ll get hands-on experience with the latest farm technologies and on-farm training delivered by rural professionals. There’s a strong focus on dog handling and training, so you’ll have plenty of time developing your skills in all areas of shepherding.

Fully found position with shared accommodation, internet, and Sky TV. The station also offers excellent hunting and fishing opportunities.

If this sounds like you, send your CV to office@mountlinton.co.nz, or call Mat Middlemass on 021 799 986 for more information.
