Farm Hand/Groundskeeper

We are a nonprofit animal rescue seeking a dedicated part-time Farm Helper/Groundskeeper to join our team. Prior experience safely operating tools and equipment is recommended. Applicants must be able to lift 50 lbs. Applicants must be able to work independently but also work well with others and in all types of weather. This is a very physical job. Candidates should also be comfortable around animals as we are an animal rescue currently caring for dogs, cats, horses and many types of farm animals. Since members of the public often visit our farm, the ideal candidate will be friendly and approachable. Good work ethic, honesty and dependability are a must. Job duties include driving a zero turn and UTV, mowing, weed trimming, brush clearing, fence and shelter repair, stall cleaning, trash removal and other duties as assigned. Flexibility is crucial as tasks vary as needed and no day is the same. If you have prior experience with animals and/or operating tools and equipment, please make sure that is reflected in your resume or that you describe your experience in a cover letter or note when you apply. This is a part-time position with a range of 20 to 25 hours per week. Ideal schedule is Monday through Friday from about 8:30 am to about 12:30 pm. But, schedule is flexible and we are open to other options. Pay is semi-monthly and the pay range is $16 to $18 per hour based on experience and skill level.
