Employer Description:About Greta
Greta was born in Melbourne, Australia and lived there until she was eight-years-old. The family then relocated to the United Kingdom where she and her twin brother Silas started riding. Equestrianism became a big part of Greta’s life as, after moving to England, her mother Sarah became a successful horse breeder after a mare they owned was injured and could no longer be ridden so was put in foal. Silas is now an equine vet.
Greta was an active member of the Burghley Pony Club, taking part in all activities and teams, including representing her Club at the Pony Club Championships on three occasions. She now enjoys ‘giving back’ to the organisation that provided her solid equine grounding – she passed her AH test with Honours – regularly teaching members of the VWH branch, close to where she is now based.Working Hours :Hours are 45 per week (this position is aimed at 18's and over), to include 1 weekend day , starting at 7.30am.Skills: Communication skills,Attention to detail,Organisation skills,Problem solving skills,Presentation skills,Logical,Team working,Creative,Initiative,Non judgemental,Patience,Physical fitness,Passion to work with horses....Read more...
