Strengths and Weaknesses
• What do you most enjoy about working with horses?
I particularly enjoy working with young horses, helping them develop and seeing their confidence and ability grow. I also enjoy the preparation for shows, from getting the horses ready and travelling to competitions to seeing all the hard work come together.
• Is there anything you’d like to improve?

I believe employers should consider me because I have a wide range of experience working with horses, including eventing, showjumping, stud and showing yards. I have experience with young horses, including breaking and backing, as well as preparing horses for shows and travelling to competitions. I’m hardworking, reliable and not afraid to get stuck into any work given. I’m passionate about horses, always willing to learn and take pride in doing a job properly. I’m also used to working in a busy environment and can work well both independently and as part of a team.
