Dairy Unit Manager
Cheshire

We are looking to recruit a Dairy Unit Manager to join our existing team on a well-equipped, modern Autumn block calving farm, located near Holmes Chapel, Cheshire. Congleton Farm has excellent facilities including an 86ha grazing platform which supports 350 NZ bred Friesian cross bred cows. Infrastructure includes a Waikato 26/52 herringbone parlour, newly built self- feed silage clamp and cubicle housing with automatic scrapers.

Throughout the summer we aim to maximise the use of grazed grass in the diet and then operate a simple self-feed system throughout the winter whilst cubicle housed.

The successful candidate will be responsible for organising day to day operations on the farm which will include: staff, livestock and grassland management, whilst maintaining high animal welfare standards and delivering excellent farm performance.

We maintain a strong belief in career progression, resulting in this role becoming available. This position would therefore suit someone who is looking to move on from a 2IC or Assistant manager up the farming ladder. The successful candidate would ideally share our passion for producing milk from grass, be a good communicator and have an interest in managing people. A positive attitude and a willingness to learn is essential in this role.

Dale Farming is an enthusiastic, modern dairy farming business, that is dedicated to growing and developing people. Excellent accommodation is available alongside a competitive remuneration package.
