Ranch Hand/Laborer
Full TimeJob Description
Ranch Hand Wanted – Southwest Missouri
We are looking to hire a dependable, hardworking ranch hand for our operation in Southwest Missouri, located south of Joplin.
We are looking for someone who wants a long-term position, not someone who changes jobs every few months. Applicants must be able to provide references and a stable work history and be willing to commit to working with us for a minimum of one year. Must have previous experience with cattle. At least 18 years old.

Weed eating and general property maintenance
Building and repairing fence
Brush hogging
Gathering, sorting, working, doctoring, and handling cattle
Feeding and tending to horses
Equipment maintenance and repairs
General ranch and farm work as needed
Some cattle work will be done horseback, but horseback work will not make up the majority of this position. If you are looking for a job where you will spend most of your time horseback, this is NOT the position for you.
If you have your own horses and would like to bring a few, we can provide a place for them.
Applicants need to be prepared to work 7 days a week when the ranch requires it. There will also be slower periods when fewer hours are available. Ranch work is seasonal and the workload will vary depending on what needs to be done. Weekends are required to work. If/when you want time off just ask!

At this time, we do not provide housing, health insurance, or other traditional benefits. Housing may become available in the future, but it is not currently included with the position.
We do provide cash bonuses around holidays and there will be additional perks and opportunities as time goes on for the right person.
We are looking for someone who takes pride in their work, wants steady long-term employment, and understands that ranching sometimes means long days and doing whatever needs to be done. This is a family operation and we will be very selective of who we hire, want someone we can trust. Cell phone usage is limited.
