We are looking for 2 incredibly strong and fit individuals, who are not afraid of hard work and being stung by bees; while working in some of the most stunning scenic places that NZ is known for.

You will be able to lift 50kg easily and for long periods of time. This job requires you to wear a fully enclosed beesuit with a hood in temperatures that range from 20⁰ to 35⁰, while lifting large volumes of honey boxes.

You will not be scared of early mornings and long days.

Your main job will be to work with our beekeeper harvesting honey and then extracting that honey in our factory.

We will provide accommodation and shared kitchen/bathroom facilities for the successful applicants. It is rural living and more like a campsite setup; but it is comfortable and has hot water and wifi. If you have a van you are welcome to live in that and use the facilities.

You will be located right by the River and the Ocean, but approximately 1 hour away from shops and supermarkets. You must have your own transport and bring your own food.

Starting date is ASAP and if you are available for a minimum of 12 weeks that would be ideal. We do have employment available until 1st May.
