You’ll be part of a team working outside and spending the day with the animals you love.

However, like any profession involving animal care, it involves extended and occasionally unconventional hours. This includes weekend shifts and night duties, particularly during the foaling season. Most farms follow a roster requiring staff to work every second weekend. Physical fitness, a positive mindset, and a robust work ethic are fundamental attributes for thriving in farm work.

Success in the breeding industry often comes to those dedicated individuals who embrace the reality that this isn't a 9-to-5 job. It requires commitment and a genuine passion for the work at hand.

Fast Track welcomes individuals from all backgrounds across Australia, aged 18 and over, who share an interest in horses. No prior experience with thoroughbreds is necessary.
