Experienced Young Horse Trainer

We are seeking an experienced Young Horse Trainer to join our professional dressage and young horse development yard in Hampshire.

The successful candidate will work within Anmore’s structured training programme, maintaining the highest standards of horse welfare and safety, and communicating horse progress clearly with management.
