About The Position
We are looking for an experienced show groom to grow with our a boutique showing jumping team. Approx 8 horses (two currently at grand prix level and others competing 1.30m or more) split between two grooms, a working student / rider and a hand-on owner rider. FEI Experience preferred and ability to braid and clip will be appreciated. Our new groom must have their own reliable transportation. Our new groom will assist with normal grooming duties including feeding, turnout, cleaning and care of the horses, cleaning stalls and tack, lunging, bringing horses to the ring, and setting jumps in warm-up. We do not have regular lesson or boarding clients. Normal work week at home is 5 days per week, and 6 days per week when showing. We pride ourselves on being efficient and not overworking anyone. Summers are based at our home farm in Virginia, and we travel to shows along the east coast and eastern mid-west. Winters are based at a private farm in Ocala, December through March. Training may be available for the right candidate but this is not a riding position. We take our work seriously, but if it is not fun, it is not worth doing :-) If this looks like a great job for you, please reach out and let's talk!
