Shepherd Flock Manager
STANFORD SHEEP

Under new ownership and following a management reshuffle an exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and ambitious person to join our team of experienced and dedicated shepherds.

The successful candidate will be responsible for the care and husbandry of approx. 1500 hefted Beulah ewes which currently lamb outside in March/April.

These are part of a larger flock of 5000 ewes which extensively graze the 5000ha ring-fenced MOD Training Area at Stanta, North of Thetford, in Norfolk. The farm is in the Breckland SSSI which is highly regarded for its environmental and conservation value.

The successful candidate will be someone willing and able to contribute to the efficiency and management of the business. Career progression is a possibility for the right candidate.

Applicants must have good communication skills, be self-motivated and an organised team player with a valid UK driving license and working dogs.

A competitive salary, commensurate with experience, will be offered with the addition of a 3-bedroom house if required.
