What are the responsibilities and job description for the Ranch help in Cherokee, TX position at Pasion Iberica Ranch LLC?
We are a small, family owned farm looking to add a new, permanent member to our team.
We have a ranch manager at this property, but need an additional person with similar capabilities to enable him to do his work without having to “babysit” or micro-manage his help. Therefore, we are looking for someone with 20 years of experience being responsible for all aspects of a ranch, including at least 5 years of experience caring for animals.
We raise Iberian pigs; a traditional breed of the domestic pig native to the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal) first brought to America in the summer of 2014. We raise them free-range and sell them alive for high-end meat production.
The ideal candidate already lives in or wants to move to Cherokee or vicinity.
