Millfield School is seeking a passionate and dedicated Equine Groom Apprentice to join our friendly and supportive equine team. If you have a genuine love for horses and are eager to develop your skills in stable management, this is a fantastic opportunity to start your career in a vibrant and professional environment.
Our impressive Equestrian Centre features spacious indoor and outdoor arenas and accommodates over 40 horses, including our riding school horses and student livery horses. As an apprentice, you will work closely with experienced staff, caring for your allocated horses and supporting the team in the daily running of the yard. You’ll be part of a small, collaborative team committed to the welfare of our horses and the well-being and education of our teenage students.
At Millfield School, we are committed to your professional growth. As an apprentice, you will immerse yourself in all aspects of stable management and benefit from hands-on training and mentoring. You will also have dedicated time each week for formal training, supporting your progress towards recognised qualifications in the equine industry.
This is a full-time apprenticeship, working 40 hours per week (including some weekends), with 8 hours set aside for training. Applicants will need to be available to start from 6.45am.
You’ll gain experience in a wide range of duties, including:
Grooming, mucking out, and general yard duties
Trimming, clipping, and plaiting
Lunging and riding/exercising horses
Health care and feeding
Assisting with events and customer care
We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic, reliable, and enjoys working with both horses and young people. You should be a team player with good communication skills, attention to detail, and a willingness to learn.
Requirements:
Applicants must be aged 18 or over (due to the age group of students you’ll be working with)
Apprentices without Level 1 English and Maths will need to work towards these qualifications as part of the apprenticeship
Benefits:
On-site accommodation available in an ensuite room with shared facilities, at £120 per month plus £120 deposit (inclusive of bills)
Supportive team environment and opportunities for professional development
Payment for normal working hours and training time
