Are you interested in living on an Olive Farm on Cape Naturaliste?
We are looking for a Farm Manager to run Eagle Bay Olive Farm on Cape Naturaliste Road.
Every day will be different, so we need an individual, or couple, with a broad range of skills. You will be tending to the olive trees, helping to run the shop, keeping the machinery running and helping to process the olives. You will be doing this in one of the most beautiful parts of Australia.
This is a full time role with accommodation provided. You will be supported by an experienced team already in place, but it’s a role and farm you can make your own. Some experience in a similar farming role or heavy industry is required.
