Experience with Horses
I have 6 years experience with horses. I am the main groom for the biggest livery yard in Essex. I work with a varied range of horses and pride myself on my professionalism. For 2 of those years i had experience working on the riding school and RDA where i would tack up the horses and help the children in their lessons aswell as lead them. This gave me a real sense of achievement seeing the children progress each week especially the children with disabilities. Due to covid the riding school come to an end at our yard.
Key Skills
I’m good at working in a team aswell as on my own initiative. Turning horses out for a show, I’ve got a coloured myself so i’ve got to be spot on with that. Handling different horses i’m quite a calm quiet handler even if they are a bit wild i stay quiet and calm. Riding, i find I’m quite a confident rider, I’ve ridden ponies from 13hh to horses at 18hh and I’ve ridden quite spicy ones so i find myself to have a good seat. Also I’m good at the general yard duties, mucking/skipping out, haying, watering, feeding and tidying the yard etc.
Strengths and Weaknesses
•What i enjoy most about working with horses is, I just love being around them, i couldn’t see myself doing anything different. I see them as my therapy, i love working with them and getting to know all their different personalities etc.
•I’d like to improve my confidence in clipping, also plaiting up for shows.
•I think employers should consider me above any other job seekers because I’m very trustworthy and extremely reliable. I put my everything into what i do. I don’t like taking any sick days off.
Requirements
•I would like to gain as much experience as i can and further my career within the equine industry.
