About the role

Donohoe Pastoral Co is seeking a reliable Farm Hand (or a keen working couple) to join our team across our family-owned cattle properties in the Charleville, Blackall, Augathella, and Morven region, Queensland. This is a full-time position that will play a key role in the day-to-day operations of our cattle stations. We are open to applications from individuals or couples where both partners can contribute to farm duties.

Key responsibilities

- Assisting with livestock management, including mustering on motorbikes, drafting, handling, and basic animal health tasks (vaccinations, treatments, etc.).
- Performing general station maintenance such as fencing repairs, yard work, water point checks, and property upkeep.
- Conducting regular inspections, basic repairs, and maintenance on machinery, vehicles, and infrastructure to ensure safety and reliability.
- Adhering to all safety protocols and procedures to protect yourself, your colleagues, livestock, and our valuable assets.

About you

- Previous experience working on cattle properties or farms (station hand, livestock handling, or general rural work preferred).
- Excellent attention to detail, a solid work ethic, and a genuine commitment to safety.




- Ability to work independently as well as part of a small, close-knit team.
- A valid driver's licence (and willingness to obtain any additional licences or certifications required, e.g., for machinery operation).
- For couples: Both partners should be willing and able to contribute to station duties (one may focus more on general hand tasks, the other on machinery/livestock as skills allow); we can discuss flexible roles.

Benefits

- Ongoing training and development opportunities to build your skills.
- On-farm accommodation provided (suitable for individuals or couples), plus a work vehicle.
- Access to modern, well-maintained machinery and equipment.
- Flexible work arrangements with the ability to tailor rosters to suit you (and your partner if applicable).
- A friendly, collaborative team culture where your contributions are truly valued.
