Team Dynamic is searching for a hard working individual to join me in Florida from now until May 1.
Job details:
Groom & Manager for 12-15 dressage horses. I will list the daily duties but please know that I am an all hands on deck kind of person, and everything listed is done collaboratively in some capacity.
To Do: Feeding, turnout, help managing supplies and orders (just remind me to buy things before we run out), preparing horses for me to ride & caring for them afterwards, tack cleaning, night check… all of the normal duties needed to make a barn function. I have a daily stall cleaner but occasionally we need to pick in the afternoons. Sometimes we have to move hay. Sometimes we work 6am - 6pm. Sometimes we’re both tired from the day before and we quit at noon and go sit by the beach. I try to schedule a lunch break every day unless it’s just too chaotic.. but I will always respect you if you look at me and tell me you need a minute to breathe. I’m a very realistic person who believes in teamwork, and i don’t believe in torture. It’s just me, you, the stall cleaner, and the horses. The days can be long. But while the expectation of quality is high, the reality of being human is understood.
In return, I provide salary (W2), housing on site, 2 weeks paid time off, and the willingness and encouragement to help you achieve whatever goals you may have. I expect trustworthiness, efficiency, and a willingness to stay positive even on the hard days. This is a labor of love - we have to be a team to get the job done! Work weeks are 6 days, with the understanding that horses don’t have a time schedule and we do the things until the things are done. Also mentioning again that if we’ve had a hard day or things are just going to s**t.. i’m the first one to back off and say “we’ll try again tomorrow”. But some days we have to power through and i need someone strong willed who will power through with me.
No smoking and no dogs. If you have a horse and want to bring it down, we can chat if you’re the right person.
If this is something you or someone you know might be interested in, send me a message!
