Job Opportunity at Bounty Dairy

Join our team on Bounty Dairy and play a key role in rearing our next generation dairy cattle.

You'll be responsible for caring for young calves, feeding, weighing, drafting, drenching, and monitoring their health and welfare. You may also assist with milking and general farm duties when required.

Located just ten minutes from Taupō, the farm offers the best of both worlds - close to town yet surrounded by lifestyle opportunities, including water sports, mountain biking, hunting, and fishing. The area also has a range of local schooling options, making it an ideal location for those looking to balance a rewarding farming career with family life and outdoor recreation.
