New Zealand DairyNZ Full time

**Research Technician**:

- Do you want to make a real impact for Dairy farmers in NZ?
- Work within a talented and collaborative team
- Be part of a passionate, supportive and world-leading industry-good organisation
**About the role**

Our Research Tech team in Newstead has some big projects to deliver and we need an RT star to help us deliver great research outcomes for our farmers

No two days are the same around here; you may start your day with the sun in a dairy shed sampling, follow the samples through our laboratory and wrap it up completing data entry at your desk. Or, spend your day helping calve cows, spreading feed or zooming (safely) around on a motorbike to move stock.

**About you**

You must be a self starter and willing to get stuck in to whatever comes your way. Working alongside farm staff and scientists, our Research Technicians’ work contributes directly to our world-leading scientific research, so the ability to meet deadlines and be proactive about quality control is vital.

A comfort and confidence working with dairy cattle is a must, along with a good level of physical fitness, the ability to communicate well and a good understanding of how a dairy farm works.

If you’ve a related tertiary qualification or experience in lab research work, that would be fantastic
**Why DairyNZ?**

First things first. DairyNZ is number 1 for a great team. If you’ve met or worked with DairyNZ staff you’ll know they have energy and enthusiasm - they’re the ones with a positive outlook and a sense of purpose.

Our research farms combine history-making research and exemplary animal care to produce industry-leading guidance and improvements for our dairy farmers in New Zealand.

DairyNZ also offers:

- A supportive and energetic team
- Interesting and exciting work
- Development opportunities
- Flexible working culture
- Wellbeing programmes
