Paid training towards your Cert III with starting package to $62k per annum.

Skills and experience
Most apprentice butchers spend years cutting boxed meat. You'll learn on whole carcases.
At The Free Range Butcher we buy grass-fed and pasture-raised beef, lamb, pork and chicken from farmers we know by name, and we break it all down ourselves. Sausages, smallgoods and ready meals are made from scratch too, right here on the Central Coast at Somersby.
We're after one apprentice to learn the trade properly, start to finish.

Breaking and boning whole carcases
Knife skills, trimming and portioning
Sausage making and smallgoods
How a real production butchery runs, food safety included
