About CRV
CRV is a pioneering, innovative herd improvement company that is leading the way in dairying in New Zealand. We are part of the Global CRV group with locations in Europe, North America, South America, Africa and Australia.
As a business, our goal is to help dairy farmers achieve the healthiest and most efficient herd. We do this through collaborating with farmers and offering them the best genetic tools and information to achieve their farming goals.
Innovation is key to our business, and we aim to proactively manage ongoing changing market demands by offering innovative solutions tailored to our customers’ needs both in New Zealand and overseas.
About the role
Herd testing is a critical part of our data capture service, which assists farmers with managing their herd, their genetics, and the profitability of their businesses. The data is also used as an integral part of CRV’s genetic improvement programme.
This is a seasonal role from August 2025 to June 2026, covering the Upper Taranaki area.
This is a physical role working in the milking shed and involves setting up equipment, taking milk samples and recording data. You’ll be hands on working alongside our farmer customers so early starts are all part of the fun. You must be comfortable with working around livestock and with some heavy lifting. The role is mobile so you must also be comfortable with travelling long distances, sometimes staying overnight if required.
The hours are flexible to cover milking times with variable pay depending on what work is available due to the seasonal nature of this role. The role offers great variety in that you’ll get to work with different people, in a different location every day.
About you
To be successful in this role you will need:
Some knowledge of dairy farming would be ideal but full on-job training is provided.
Great communication skills and the ability to develop strong working relationships with the farmers in your territory.
The ability to carry out physical work and to enjoy working with cows.
To be a morning person and ok with early starts!
Excellent time management skills and the ability to work flexible hours.
To be able to stay away overnight if needed.
The ability to work safely alongside cows in the milking shed.
