Apple picker

We require apple pickers to add to our team for this seasons harvest on our Ettrick apple orchard.

We have limited accommodation on orchard but will try and assist in finding suitable places to stay.

The position starts in early March and ends approximately at the end of April, we work 8 am to 5pm  and normally 6 days a week  but this is weather dependent .

You must have a good level of fitness as the job involves 18kg bags and ladder work , it will help if you  enjoy the outdoors .

The bulk of the work is by piece rates ie paid by the amount you pick and there's the opportunity to make good wages once you have been trained and become efficient.

Preference will be given to those who have experience in Horticulture but is not essential .

You must have a work visa or have NZ residency.
