We're looking for a Poultry Farm Assistant to join a friendly team at a broiler farm in Newark. You'll play an important role in helping care for the birds, supporting day-to-day farm operations and maintaining high welfare standards.

This is a permanent opportunity with full training provided, overtime available and genuine opportunities to develop your skills and progress your career within the agricultural sector.

Why People Like Working Here

You'll be joining a supportive team where everyone works together to keep the farm running smoothly.

There's plenty of variety in the role, full training from experienced colleagues and opportunities to learn new skills along the way. If you're looking for a long-term role with stability and room to grow, you'll find that here.

It's also a role that keeps you active. If sitting behind a desk all day isn't for you, you'll probably enjoy this.

What You'll Be Doing

- Helping care for the birds and supporting their welfare every day
- Assisting with bird weighing, vaccinations, catching and collection activities
- Monitoring feed, water, ventilation, heating and lighting across the farm
- Keeping accurate records and updating farm information when needed

What We're Looking For

You'll fit right in if you:

- Enjoy hands-on, practical work
- Take pride in doing a job properly
- Work well as part of a team
- Are reliable and have a positive attitude
- Care about animal welfare and maintaining high standards
- Are willing to learn new skills and develop your knowledge

Previous farming, agricultural or poultry experience is helpful, but it isn't essential as full training will be provided.

Due to the rural location of the farm and limited public transport options, access to your own transport is preferred.

What's In It For You?

- Permanent employment
- Overtime opportunities
- Full training provided
- Career progression opportunities
- Company pension scheme
- Life assurance cover
- Free annual flu jab
- Free will-writing service
