Farm Mechanic/Engineer

We have two new permanent job vacancies on a mixed farm in Devon (EX14).

Our client has two Farm Mechanic positions available on the farm for individuals with commercial livestock/farm experience. 

1. A competent mechanic to work on heavy harvesting machinery. Primarily workshop-based, with some onsite work. Long hours in season, working to the highest standard. The ability to operate machinery & fabricate is an advantage.
2. A competent mechanic to work in the workshop of an arable & pig farm. Work is divided between maintenance, service & repair of machinery & field equipment. Combined with a similar amount of time working on modern pig equipment & buildings, fabrication ability is essential.

Candidates need to demonstrate reliability, honesty & the ability to work within a team.

Both positions are full-time with long-term potential and good pay & conditions.

Qualifications are unnecessary, although a manufacturer trained for position '1' would be advantageous.

Salary Guide is £25,000 - £30,000 + DOE 

Both positions are paid hourly – position 'A' can involve extra hours and weekend work in the harvest season. 

Accommodation: 2-bed housing is available, or mobile homes.

For the roles, the farmer would be open to self-employed individuals & extra hours available in both cases.
