A BIT ABOUT LIVESTOCK IMPROVEMENT CORPORATION (LIC)
LIC is New Zealand's leading agri-tech and herd improvement co-operative setting the benchmark for pasture-based dairy farming through the delivery of superior genetics and technology.
As a result, New Zealand dairy herds are world leading and have some of the highest rates of genetic gain in the world.
LIC has two farms in the Manawatu area: Awahuri and Feilding. These farms are an integral part of their bull semen collection for New Zealand farms and international export.
LIC's Awahuri farm includes a double fenced 20ha EU Quarantine centre which houses bulls that have been through a strict quarantine process.
The Fielding farm manages both bulls and replacement heifers for LIC's dairy farm in the Waikato.
THE OPPORTUNITY

The successful applicant will lead by example in all areas of the farming operation, establishing positive working relationships with stakeholders including the staff at Newstead Farm in Waikato, laboratory team and the wider LIC team.
As a modern, data-driven co-op, LIC works with large amounts of data and information which helps their farmers drive more value on-farm.
LIC's Manawatu farms have a lot of moving parts due to their scale, requiring the appointee to this role to be organised and well planned.

- Excellent understanding of the fundamentals of farming.
- High level of stockmanship and experience handling large bulls.
- Strong communication skills (verbal & written) and ability to articulate plans.
