For the outdoor inclined, there are plenty of hunting opportunities, and both fresh and saltwater fishing are not too far away. Rock climbing, caving and mountain biking are all easy to access, and it isn’t far for skiing on Ruapehu in the winter.

- 3+ years veterinary experience
- Experience in sheep and beef work is essential
- You should be organised, self-motivated, enjoy learning on the job and have a positive 'can do' attitude
