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. We offer an above-award wage that will be negotiated according to your level of experience.

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 strong 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 versatile roles.

Advantages
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).
