Experience with Horses
I have extensive experience with horses, having ridden up to Elementary level in Dressage. Throughout my equestrian journey, I have had the privilege of training with renowned professionals such as Jo Swain, Jo Winfield, and Henry Boswell, as well as undergoing strength and conditioning training with Andy Thomas. My riding background includes working with a diverse range of horses during my time at College, in addition to having my own ponies while growing up.
Beyond this, I have successfully produced two young horses, a 3 year old and a 4 year old, carefully bringing them on with patience and skill. One of these horses was initially intended to be a Pony Club all-rounder but went on to excel in Dressage, leading us to compete at the Sheepgate Under 25’s Championships in 2018 and qualify for the Dressage to Music Regional Championships.
Key Skills
I take great pride in my ability to turn out horses to a high standard. My attention to detail ensures that they are always presented immaculately, as I am proficient in trimming and plaiting to achieve a polished appearance.
I am a reliable, responsible, and punctual individual who communicates effectively. My stable management skills are excellent – I work efficiently and always maintain an industry standard level of care and organisation
Strengths and Weaknesses
Having been around horses my entire life, I have developed a calm and composed manner when handling them. As a rider, I am quiet and sensitive, always adapting to the individual needs of each horse I work with. My experience includes riding a variety of horses in different settings, from college training programs to Pony Club activities and beyond.
While I can sometimes appear reserved at first, I am a dedicated worker who consistently gets the job done to a high standard.
Why Employers Should Choose Me
I am deeply passionate about horses and highly capable in all aspects of equestrian care and management. My approach is always horse-centric, ensuring that each animal receives the tailored attention it requires.
Additionally, I hold a full driving license, have my own vehicle, and am hoping to work towards my HGV qualification.
Job Requirements
I am eager to further my Dressage training and take on a more involved role with competition horses. I am based in the Midlands and would require accommodation if the role is located outside this area.
I am open to both live-in and live-out positions and currently have no ongoing commitments, allowing me to fully dedicate myself to the role.
