Experience with Horses
Outline your experience with horses here/the scope of your freelance services. If you’re looking for a non-equine or non- yard-based job please use this space to describe your experience skills/abilities and adapt the questions to suit your line of work.
Level one Traineeship, August 2023 to Aug 2024 & Volunteer Role – Oct 2022 & Apr 2023; Aug 2024 ongoing
I started helping at Hargate because my stepmum introduced me to horses. At first I was just interested, but then I realised I really enjoy working with them. I asked if I could do work experience, and later I got onto a 12-month traineeship with Stubbing Court Training Centre. I’ve learned:
- Daily horse care: feeding, mucking out, water, rugs, turning in and out
- Grooming, hoof picking and handling both ponies and larger horses
- Building confidence around animals
- Starting to ride, and learning to be confident on different horses
Key Skills
What are you particularly good at? For example: working alone, working with others, clipping, plaiting, turning out for shows, handling stallions, handling/riding young horses, non-equine skills etc
- Looking after horses, doing practical outdoor work like gardening and landscaping
- Working independently once I understand the job
- Following routines and structured tasks
- Being reliable and turning up on time
- Willing to learn and keep improving, and learning new tasks quickly
Strengths and Weaknesses
• What do you most enjoy about working with horses?
Being able to work outdoors and work in an industry that I love
• Is there anything you’d like to improve?
Social skills and being confident around others
• Why should employers consider you above any other job seeker?
I am willing and wanting to work in the equine industry. I love to learn new skills. I am capable and just need someone to take a little time for me to gain confidence around them.
