Farm Worker – Mixed Cropping / Arable - Rakaia
Arable
Full Time
canterbury, new zealand
Pinegrove AgAfter 10 years with us, a valued team member has made a career change, creating an exciting opportunity to join our family-run farm, Pinegrove Ag.
About Us
Pinegrove Ag is a 382-hectare family farm with two key enterprises: a dairy operation and an arable/dairy support system—and this role is all about the arable side.
We run 800 dairy cows while also cropping across 186 hectares, growing:
🌾 Cereals – Wheat, barley, and grass seed
🌱 Fodder crops – Fodder beet, kale, maize, and peas
We’re a close-knit, hard-working team that takes pride in running an efficient, innovative, and well-maintained farm. No two days are the same, and we love what we do!
About the Role
This is a hands-on role with a huge variety of daily and seasonal tasks, including:
✅ Tractor work
✅ Stock work
✅ Harvesting crops
✅ Cultivation & seeding
✅ Fert spreading & baleage
✅ Irrigation (rotorainer, pivot, & lateral)
✅ Machinery maintenance & engineering projects
✅ Fencing & general farm work
What We’re Looking For
You don’t need years of farm experience (though it’s a bonus!), but you should be:
✔ A team player who can also work independently
✔ A good communicator—our large-scale operation requires clear coordination
✔ Motivated and willing to put in extra hours during busy seasons (harvest, irrigation, planting)
✔ Comfortable with a seasonal weekend roster for winter grazing, irrigation, and harvest
✔ Ideally handy with machinery maintenance and basic engineering (e.g., welding)—training provided for the right person

Zana AgABOUT THE FARM:
The herd consists of 540 spring-calving Friesian and Friesian cross cows. Cows are predominantly grass-fed, with palm kernel fed in peak. Chicory and grass silage are fed in the summer deficit. Cows are milked through a 50-bale rotary with ACRs and auto teat-spray.
ABOUT YOU:
You will be driven to go further within the dairy industry, and are taking on such a role with the goal of progressing to a management (or similar) roles once you feel you've learnt all you can from us. Your attitude and willingness to learn are just as important as your current skills.
You will be currently living in, and have the right to work in New Zealand, have a valid driver’s licence, and be prepared to undergo pre-employment Police and Drug Tests.
WITHIN THIS ROLE, YOU CAN EXPECT:
Tractor work, including feeding out and use of front-end loader; assisting calvings, including diagnosing and treating down cows; milking including mastitis and lameness detection; keeping accurate cow health records; treating sick cows including mastitis and lameness; a high standard of in-shed hygiene; maintenance of machinery; weed control; general break fencing. You will be required to supervise to the farm and staff for short periods during contract milker absences. You will also have good communication skills, enthusiasm for the dairy industry, motorbike competence (2- and 4-wheeler) and be calm, patient, and considerate towards stock.
Within this role, you will have the opportunity to learn or develop your pasture management, animal health, mating, and calving skills.

Zayn grew up in town, and discovered a passion for farming after finishing school. He studied at Lincoln University, completing Diplomas in Ag and in Farm Management. He has worked in dry-stock and dairy processing industries before pursuing dairy farming. He has been very involved within NZ Young Farmers, taking the win for the Taranaki/Manawatu at the 2023 National YF fencing tournament alongside Natalie. He was also the 2024 Taranaki/Manawatu Grand Finalist at the Young Farmer of the Year competition. These experiences have led Zayn to be passionate about motivating and encouraging other young people in the ag industry.
Natalie grew up rurally in Hawkes Bay, and works full-time as a researcher with the Riddet Institute at Massey University, with a PhD focusing on milk protein digestion. Her work has been recognized internationally at the 2024 World Dairy Summit in France. She is on-farm when she can be, and handles the calf-rearing side of things.
We are a driven couple looking for a like-minded team to achieve another successful year of farming.

Ag Assist is free to use because we believe the food & fibre sector deserves a more connected and efficient way of working. In the future, we may introduce premium listings once the platform has grown and fully meets the industry’s needs. For now, your feedback is invaluable in helping us shape that journey.
Ag Assist made a difference
"Highly recommend to others in the agri sector."
Selene H
Dairy Farmer, Canterbury
I book workers for when I need them!
“Ag Assist transformed our farm’s staffing requirements. As a part-time labour solution, it’s economically sound for us, I don’t have to go looking for jobs to fill in their day. I book for exactly what and when I require them, and that is what we pay for!”
Stuart M
Sheep & Beef Farmer, Canterbury
Ag Assist takes the guesswork out of finding workers.
“Seeing their profile, other farmer comments and ratings just puts a lot of trust in the system. It’s a great platform to find short-term workers, to fill holes or even seasonal work. Be confident knowing that there’s quality workers on there to help you out in the time of need.“
Vaughan B
Dairy Farmer, Canterbury
Attracting new skilled staff on a short-term basis was impossible!
“Ag Assist allowed us to fill these positions temporarily with skilled, motivated, and reliable staff at short notice. The platform was easy to use and allowed us to see the pool of available workers and then book a couple of workers who best suited our needs, to carry us through to the end of the season.”
Anna
Ag Assist Worker
I want to connect with a network of Canterbury farms.
“Being from Waikato, Ag Assist allowed me to gain practical experience alongside my studies by giving me flexibility to choose my work hours. It helped facilitate my on-farm learning but also kept my parents pleased with my commitment to study!”
Will
Ag Assist Worker
I found a way to get my farming fix and earn money.
“Balancing my 9 – 5 job with my passion for farming was made easy with Ag Assist. The flexibility of work hours allowed me to milk before and after work satisfying my itch while earning extra income. Plus working on various farm allowed me to experience different operations firsthand, enriching my knowledge and skills in the field.”
Jenna M
Dairy Farmer, Canterbury
I plan and book staff in advance.
“Three days prior to mating my Herd Manager broke his ankle. After reworking my staffing roster I needed some supplementary help to cover gaps. The Ag Assist availability calendar allowed me to plan and book staff in advance, which was instant peace of mind. No housing was required, purely drive in/ drive out.”
Reece M
Ag Assist Worker
I have built my network and connections in Agriculture.
“I have been with Ag Assist from the beginning. Studying an agricultural degree Ag Assist has given me opportunities to work on a variety of properties and grow my skills, expertise and networks in dairy, sheep & beef and horticultural industries.”
