I have two positions open for working students! I am potentially
looking for someone long-term who can go to Aiken with us. The longer you
stay on, the more you’ll be able to learn, the more experiences you’ll have, and
the more in-depth your education will be.
Housing and utilities are included, at the
cottage on the farm; board for your horse is offered at a reduced rate, and
lessons/coaching included, in NJ and in Aiken.
Duties include a bit of
everything: we have horses in training, sales and young horses, and advanced
competition horses. It’s hands-on in all aspects of care and maintenance of the
horses and the farm. You will also learn how to run an equine business. My team
and I are very hands-on in terms of teaching our working students everything
about caring for event horses, managing a farm, conditioning horses, breaking
young horses, and anything else involved.
Having your own horse is welcome but not required
– we have horses I can teach on. Any riding background is okay. My barn manager Vanessa came to me about three years ago having only ridden Western; now she is one of the better event horse grooms in the business! There is one requirement: you must be old enough
to drive and have a license and a car, since we are located in a rural area. A positive attitude and good work ethic are also a must!
