Ben Perry
Now looking for next full- time eventing groom position.
I am an experienced and skilled Yard Manager, Groom, and Rider dedicated to achieving the highest standards in horse care and yard management. I constantly seek opportunities for improvement and bring a motivated, efficient, and confident presence to the workplace.
I am passionate about maintaining the highest level of wellbeing of the horses and facilities in my care, treating them as if they were my own. I am extremely meticulous and “OCD” which keeps all my work at the highest possible standard. My role has always extended beyond typical working hours, as I understand the demands of the equine industry. I am committed to cleanliness, organisation, and precision, both at
home and during competitions, to ensure seamless operations even when under high pressure.
Having produced my own horse to 4* level successfully, I bring a great deal of experience in horse care and riding. I have also groomed up to 5* level in eventing including Badminton and Burghley.
