Experience with Horses

I’ve been riding since I was 6 years old. I stated with showjumping and dressage, where I did a lot of competing in both. I switched to racehorses in 2019. In my free time I started in with a small trainer who bought a horse that he used to teach me to race on as an amateur rider. And within 6 months I rode my first ever race and won my second race for him. In the end of 2020 I left my job at the supermarket and moved to Copenhagen to work in a racing stable who only had stallions that primarily came from coolmore.
After that I worked for 2 other great trainers. Unfortunately I had a fall from a horse and had a surgery after my last trainer retired. Now I’m ready and fit again and I want back to a job with horses. I’m currently riding between 1-3 horses daily. Earlier in life I’ve broken a few horses in so I have some experience with that as well.

I attended the British racing school overseas one week course in the summer of 2022

For 5 years when I was younger and still in school I did some stablework in the weekends where I did feed 30 horses 3 times a day, letting them out in the field and back in, mucking with 10-13 School horses and what else was needed.

 

Key Skills

I’m very good at organizing and making structure in my every day Life. I would describe myself as a patient person and calm in stressful situations.

 

Strengths and Weaknesses

• What do you most enjoy about working with horses?

I love the variations between horses personality and the way they each have their own needs both in the stable but also in training

 

• Is there anything you’d like to improve?
I always want to improve my skills and the general knowledge.
I would love to get more knowledge about feeling and generally health of the horses

• Why should employers consider you above any other job seeker?

Because horses are my passion and it always have been. My dream job is in a team that surrounds horses and where all the people are working like a family towards the same goal.
I’m also that kind of person that never gives up, if something isn’t working I always try to find another way to reach my goal and it’s as important to me that the people around me are reaching there goals as well as I reach mine. I believe that you are so much stronger in a good team than on your on an each individual has something to bring to a team.
