Assist with daily dairy operations and farm tasks at Pinta Dairy Farm

Dairy Farm Assistant

Join the team at Pāmu's Pinta Dairy Farm as a Dairy Farm Assistant. This is a hands-on dairy role where you'll be part of the day-to-day running of the farm.

You'll work with a supportive team and farm manager, and build your skills across milking, calving, feeding, fencing, moving stock, animal health and caring for the environment.

No two days are quite the same. You'll have the chance to learn from experienced people, grow your confidence, and keep developing your dairy farming career.

What matters most is that you enjoy working with animals, like being outdoors, and are willing to learn. You'll be part of a team that supports each other, works safely, and takes pride in caring for the animals, the farm and the environment.

You'll do well in this role if you:

  • Enjoy practical, hands-on work
  • Are comfortable working with animals
  • Like working as part of a team
  • Are keen to keep learning and building your skills
  • Have a current restricted or full New Zealand driver licence
  • Experience in a similar role is preferred
