Rider

We are a small hunter/ jumper show barn in Waterford, VA looking for a hardworking individual to join our team full time. We have about 18 horses in training and typically travel to shows 1- 2 weeks per month. Most of the winter is spent in VA, we will make some short trips to WEC Ohio and/or Ocala.

We are a small operation and everyone does a bit of everything. Job duties include flat riding, general horse care, setting jumps, tacking/untacking, clipping, packing/ unpacking for shows, travel to shows or stay at home and manage the farm while we are gone. Ability to drive a truck and trailer and teach lower level lessons would be a huge plus. The job would start as mostly flat riding, we can offer more opportunities for the right candidate that may include showing. You would also be able to bring your own horse along to horse shows.

Salary depends on experience. We can also offer training and paid vacation after one year. Housing available for female applicants- 4 bedroom house shared with 2 grooms.
