Ideally, we are looking for someone who wishes to be with the horses throughout the entire year, but are also open to temporary or short term.

Looking for a motivated/ caring individual with attention to detail and a focus on the overall horses well being. A proactive approach to horse management and experience with international level competition grooming is preferred. Open to grooms who have worked at the FEI level in showjumping, dressage, or other disciplines. Team player work mentality and positive attitude are a must. The ideal candidate will be excited to travel with the horses, hold a valid passport, and be confident giving medications, lunging and driving a truck and trailer. Oppurtunities to ride are available but not required.
