Red Rider is seeking a full time employee to work on our grain farm. We operate a modern 13000 acre family farm and are continually expanding. For an ambitious individual there is room for training and increased responsibilities.
We operate a seed cleaning plant as well as the farm, we maintain all of our own equipment and haul our own grain, so there is lots of work through the year. We offer flexible vacation time excluding seeding and harvest. We offer health benefits and life insurance.
Preference will be given to applicants with a class 1A drivers license with a clean record. Must be physically in good condition because of the manual parts of working on the farm. We have housing available for a family.
