NO PHONE CALLS ACCEPTED!!

Looking for someone with strong mechanical skills and any other experience (FENCING!/welding/carpentry/electrical/engines) that would be useful on an operation that not only raises purebred / commercial cattle but the feed to feed them. In addition to wheat/corn/sunflowers/ we put in cover crops for fall grazing.

Cost of living in our area is extremely low. Salary based on experience with sundays off.. various weekends / vacation time. Some of the perks we may consider …………… Beef / Ranch Vehicle / season Bonus’

As you can see we raise purebred limousin seedstock and commercial cattle. But we also raise the feed and cash crops associated so strong mechanical skills are a must as is handling tractors / combines etc…! We are looking for someone who’s skills can compliment this type of operation. We are not just looking for a cowboy! You must be willing to adapt/learn/work hard and work well by yourself and with others.

A day in the life at Schott Ranch would be a morning meeting in the shop office to compare ‘to do lists’! Our expectations would be carrying of a notebook and constantly making observations on repairs / fencing / fields n pastures to be sprayed / entering any repairs in database / cattle to be doctored / Then a constant reprioritization of the lists based on mother nature / urgency / time / cost etc…!
While we do have a probation period …This is a LONG term obligation. Learning our operations complexity takes time and if we invest in this training then we expect long term commitment.

WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO BACKGROUND CHECK / DRUG / ALCOHOL TEST!

We get ALOT of resumes as you can imagine so following these simple requirements for information will go a long way to organizing our information and assimilating the resumes as well as getting your resume to the top of our list!!

Housing:
Currently we may have a small farm house available with shop etc… There are also rentals in the area starting at $300

In addition to Ranch work.. we have a few pet projects that we would like you to comment on in your responses. I aquired a military drone engine from a test facility that a friend took over from my years in DC area. We are migrating that into my experimentals plane. We have a 49+ chevy coupe that we set on an S10 pickup frame that needs wrapping up. We want to build a side by side for the ranch from an S10 pickup spending hudreds vs. tens of thousands on a new one. Please comment on your abilities and interest in these projects.
