Pig Farm Manager
We're recruiting for a Pig Farm Manager or an experienced Pig Stockperson ready to take the next step into farm management.
Our client, a family-owned farming business in Somerset, is seeking a Pig Farm Manager to take responsibility for the day-to-day operation of their 400-sow farrow-to-finish unit.
The unit operates on a 3-week batch system and combines outdoor-reared and free-range production. Dry sows are housed indoors in a modern, three-year-old scrape-through building. Farrowing takes place outdoors on concrete railway sleepers, with growers housed outside in Hudson barns. Outdoor-reared pigs are finished indoors in deep-straw scrape-through housing, while free-range pigs remain outdoors throughout.
The farm’s ethos is to work as closely as possible with the end consumer. All homegrown cereals are processed through the farm’s own mill-and-mix system and fed back to the livestock.
Person Specification:
- Positive and proactive attitude
- Strong pig production knowledge
- High standards of animal welfare
- Keen to develop within the business alongside the owner
The role is flexible and can be shaped around the successful candidate’s strengths and interests, with opportunities to grow responsibilities in staff management and consumer engagement.
Salary: £45,000 DOE + housing.
