Join the team

We're recruiting! Hurstwood Farm is looking for a BHS Riding Instructor and Changing Lives Through Horses Session Provider to join our team from the beginning of December.

The role is varied — delivering group and individual riding lessons to children and adults of a range of ages and abilities, and supporting and delivering sessions through our Changing Lives Through Horses programme, always with horse welfare at the forefront.

It's full-time, or can be shared between two part-time freelance members of staff, and is based here at Hurstwood Farm in East Sussex.

You'll need a minimum of BHS Stage 3 Care and Stage 2 Coaching qualifications, proven experience in teaching and working with horses, and a genuine passion for the wellbeing of both horses and young people. Experience of alternative education, therapeutic or personal development programmes would be an advantage.

If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. Please send your CV and application to info@hurstwood-farm.co.uk.
