🐎🐎 WE ARE HIRING! 🐎🐎

Gary Witheford is currently recruiting for part and full time roles at his established remedial, rehabilitation and training yard.

Are you a motivated, hard working self starter with a passion for equines?
Do you want to work with a team of professionals working with a variety of horses from all disciplines.
Do you have attention to detail, a ‘can do’ attitude and willingness and desire to learn?

Then we may have the role for you.

We are looking for someone to help with all day to day yard duties, give first rate care and management to our residential horses and those coming for rehabilitation, veterinary and remedial work as well as those visiting our water treadmill.

Good personal skills are a must, as well as the ability to work on their own initiative when required. Riding is a bonus, but not a pre-requisite of the role.

In return we offer good rates of pay, accommodation if needed and plenty of training. Working closely with Gary Witheford this is a hands on job with plenty of opportunity for the right person.

Next step of my Emperor’s training was a visit to the peerless last night and a demo he was giving to a local vets. Gary knows more about horses and why they behave the way they do more than anyone I’ve ever met and to watch him working them is always a joy - so easy and calm and non stressful 🙏

About Witheford Equine

Gary and Craig Witheford are specialist trainers of horses with behavioural issues. Having been known as the 'go to man' for starting stalls issues for many years, Gary has been totally dedicated to his work in racing since he first 'got the bug' at a young age.

With Craig joining the team over 15 years ago, together they have become well respected in the industry. With Gary's repeated hints at retiring (that'll be the day!) Craig is poised to continue the good work so the last couple of years has seen many changes in the business and this continues into 2019.

With an ever-growing demand from Trainers all over the UK, Ireland & Europe, we offer a unique service at trainers' yards all over the UK, dealing with horses who have issues with starting stalls. This also involves follow up attendance at racecourses all over the country for stalls tests and support for tricky cases on a race day.

Gary is also an Official Advisor to the Turkish Jockey Club, spending several weeks each year in Turkey, training the stalls teams, stewards and starters and advising on welfare and safety improvements.
