Experience with Horses
I have a variety of relevant experience working with horses from many backgrounds – from riding school ponies to Grand Prix dressage horses and horses with pain-related behavioural issues. As part of my course and relevant work experience, I have developed and fine-tuned my equine handling and management skills, with a particular focus on skills relevant to rehabilitation – such as static exercises, lunging and receiving extensive training in long-reining. Because of this, I am very confident on the ground, whether that is completing yard work to a high standard to trotting-up and ground-schooling fresh performance horses. I am also very hard-working on the yard, understanding the importance of yard cleanliness and teamwork.
Key Skills
I am happy to work alone when I know the job but also work well as part of a team. I have particular skills in groundwork as I have received extensive training in this field. I have ridden as part of my work previously, with coaches noting my quiet and gentle riding style.
Along with my equine experience I have related hospitality and communication skills that make me great with clients. I started my working life as a waitress in hospitality and most recently have been working at the stables of a 5-star hotel, meaning I am experienced at being a good representation of my workplace when interacting with clients in a friendly but professional way – even when navigating conflicts.
Strengths and Weaknesses
• What do you most enjoy about working with horses?
Due to my degree, I have a particular passion for equine biomechanics and groundwork. I love seeing the improvement in individual horses as they gain strength, confidence or comfort.
• Is there anything you’d like to improve?
While I have extensive and varied working experience, I would like to gain official practical qualifications, such as doing my BHS.
• Why should employers consider you above any other job seeker?
I am incredibly hard-working with a great work ethic. I am confident in handling horses of all backgrounds and willing to learn and improve any further skills needed for particular jobs – as I am a keen and quick learner who is passionate on becoming the best I can be in the equine industry.
