Goatherder wanted for Ireland's newest conservation project

The role, which can be found at greenjobs.ie, comes with a salary of €45,000. The herder will manage the goat herd on Howth, move the goats on a daily basis from site to site and look after the breeding program.

Yodelling is not required for Ireland’s newest conservation job, though handling a sheepdog might come in handy.

Fingal County Council, in a groundbreaking conservation grazing project with the Old Irish Goat Society (OIGS), is seeking a goatherder.
