Job description

Looking for variety, flexible hours and the chance to build your machinery skills? Join an established family farm at Euston on the Murray River in southwestern NSW, with casual or full-time work, pay matched to your experience and accommodation available to discuss.

You'll put your tractor skills to work across a mix of dryland and irrigated crops in modern GPS-guided machinery and enjoy hands-on variety, from preparing and planting crops through to spraying, harvesting and irrigation.

Reporting to the manager, you'll also help with grain handling, forklift operation, mechanical work and general farm maintenance.

This role suits a practical, enthusiastic team player who takes initiative and enjoys getting involved across the farm.

Bring demonstrated tractor operating experience, a driver's licence and your own vehicle to get to work. Self-propelled spraying and potato harvester experience, an HR truck licence, a forklift licence and Chemcert are preferred, but not essential.

Ready to learn? The farmer will teach row cropping to a competent tractor operator who shows commitment, with further opportunities to build your skills.

Set your weekly work schedule, with plenty of hours available. Once your work for the week is complete, your time is your own. Schooling and everyday essentials are available in Euston and Robinvale, with further services in Mildura. And you can talk to the farmer about furnished accommodation.

What's on offer
  • Flexible weekly schedule, with plenty of hours available
  • Generous hourly pay or salary matched to your experience
  • Accommodation discuss with the farmer
  • Row cropping training and opportunities to upskill
