It is a small family-run business with around 25 horses and a small team of staff, involved in the education and development of both equines and humans, from grass routes through to Olympic level. We are looking for a yard manager to join us (as our longstanding staff member who has been with us since 1998 is moving on). Reporting to Hannah and Becky, you will be responsible for the safe and efficient day-to-day running of the yard (between 24-30 horses) and assisting in the development of apprentices and other staff members.

This is a busy role where good communication and organisational skills are essential, along with a ‘can do’ attitude. You will be expected to build strong relationships with other members of the team, clients and other workforce. The role will be a full-time position and will include weekend work in accordance with our staff rota. Candidates are required to have a full driving license and have access to their own car. There is the possibility of a live-in position, and also the opportunity to bring a horse with you. Salary £29,120 to £31,824 dependent on experience. To apply for this role please send your CV and cover letter outlining your suitability for the role. Please also include details of your current remuneration, employment status and notice period.
