Experience with Horses.
A former police groom with 20+ yrs experience looking after horses, having taught in a riding school and extensive freelance experience, plus involvement in dressage, hunting and eventing.
Key Skills
Happy to work in a team or solo, I enjoy attention to detail and quality care. Happy with all the regular stable duties, my medical background comes in handy with the vet care side of things. I’m also happy clipping, plaiting etc, coordinating specialist care (physio, farrier, vets, saddler, etc) and am happy working horses from the ground as well as riding – schooling, hacking etc.
Strengths and Weaknesses
• What do you most enjoy about working with horses?
Providing attention to detail to maximize horses performance and wellbeing.
• Is there anything you’d like to improve?
Always learning!
• Why should employers consider you above any other job seeker?
I’m looking for a stable and committed employer who wants top quality care. If you’re a dealer wanting to turn sales round asap, running horses in ill fitting tack and passing them on with a belly full of worms I’m not the person for you!
Requirements
• What would you like to do or gain in your next job?
A committed employer looking for quality horse care from a dedicated groom.
• Do you need accommodation?
Outside of the northwest, accommodation needed for self, husband and 10 year old. If commutable in northwest accommodation may not be necessary.
• Do you have any special requirements for any animals you wish to bring with you?
2 mares 17hh, 2 dogs, 1 cat…
• Do you have any ongoing commitments?
10 yr old child.
• Do you have any holidays booked that an employer needs to know of?
- No
