Dublin city center is only 50 mins away.I'm looking for a groom/ rider to look after our horses . We have mainly hunters .
The job is to look after every aspect of the horses .
At present I have 1 horse in and hunting , 1 on rehab should be back hunting in January, and 2 x 4 yr olds are being schooled for hunting. Also have 2 retired horses who live out .
We have American barn stables , a walker , a sand arena and fields to exercise the horses in . Also a winter turnout area with shelter where the horses live in the winter months.
The job includes
Cleaning tack
Plaiting and turning horses out to a good standard for hunting, washing tails ect
Mucking out stable and winter turnout area
Feeding horses , tending to rugs, riding every day except Wednesday and Sunday.
We also have Farrier , vets and clipping man , horse physio , dentist , ect
Brushing yard and maintaining a high standard of tidiness , hygiene and organisation in the yard .
Preparing trailer for transport and cleaning out and unloading after hunting
Attending any injuries , medication ect that horses may need from time to time.
Basically everything that involves day to day care of horses.
You will not be expected to do more than 4 rides a day , and as horses are hunting at least one day a week and generally have one or two days off after , you may have one , two or maybe none to be exercised on a day.
The job involves about 30 -35 hours a week .
Wednesday is your full day off , although this can on a very rare occasion change to Thursday ( depending on hunting schedule )
Sunday , you have to feed and muck out the winter arena , you are not expected to exercise on Sundays , but if we are competing or travelling to the beach or something , then you are expected to work.
Also we need somebody with a full drivers license , as you will also have to do some driving and collecting kids .(teenagers boys 16 , 17 and my daughter is 20 . and if you can tow a box that's great !
In the summer months when the horses are turned out (march to July ) you will be asked to do some gardening work and driving . and some basic maintenance of the yard.
In return we offer your own bedroom and bathroom in a new 2 bed apartment on site < you share it with our housekeeper .
You have a car as well as a weekly salary.
With only 1 week off max at xmas time , as this is a busy time for us , summertime is a lot freer
And we need somebody asap.
