Farm Relief Services launches recruitment drive for farm workers
Farm Relief Services (FRS) has launched a national recruitment drive to source 200 seasonal farm workers.
FRS is a farmer-owned co-operative established in 1980 to provide the skills and services which farmers need to manage their farms efficiently, effectively, and successfully.
FRS are offering flexible hours, competitive rates, training, and career progression to successful candidates. Roles include relief milking, calf rearing, dairy, and general farm work.
Peter Byrne, chief executive of FRS said: “We are aiming the recruitment campaign at three specific categories of candidates, experienced farmers with spare capacity, young people looking for farm experience, and women looking for suitable part-time work.”
FRS is offering people, with a keen interest in farming, the opportunity to gain on-farm experience to build their career in agriculture and also encourage experienced farmers to apply as the roles can be flexible to allow them to supplement their current income and broaden their farming experience.
Candidates can apply to become an FRS Farm Relief Services operator by filling out an application from on www. frsfarmrelief.ie/careers
