Obstacles and risks to horses' safety are addressed
Liaise with tradespeople and other personnel who attend premises
Keep up the protection of fencing and shelters through oiling
All established gardens are kept in good order and condition, including hedging and weeding

Knowledge and experience in maintaining small acreage, pasture, gardens, equipment, external buildings, barns and infrastructure to a high standard of presentation and condition
Handyman skills and ability to work small equipment, mowers, chainsaws and pumps
Sound knowledge of horses, including their feeding, medical and exercise needs
Ability to manage schedules, organise and coordinate contractors when necessary, and identify, initiate and complete labouring tasks unsupervised
