Around 80% of the Grazier position will entail working with native pastures and improved irrigated fields raise the animals. Tasks will include moving animals using Management-intensive Grazing, understanding
cattle health, irrigating the fields, analyzing how Grama Grass’ land management practices affect the fields, and more.
The other 20% of the Grazier position will be dedicated to creating land management plans, working with the Grassland Steward on the monitoring program, assisting with general business tasks, and improving the
overall business. In this position, the Grazier will work directly with the Owner of the business to develop key performance indicators that will help define their success with Grama Grass. As the business grows, the Grazier will earn responsibility within Grama Grass. Grama Grass will adjust the role to fit the person.
This role will be located in Boulder, Colorado. It is a full-time position (40 hours/week) with an hourly wage of between $16 – $20/hour depending on experience. The Grazier will also have the opportunity for a Revenue Share with Grama Grass. A specific Revenue Share will be created for the Grazier after a 90 day trial period and will be distributed at 6 month intervals. Housing is not provided.
Work days will be flexible, though the expectation is that most days will be regular 8 hour shifts. During the irrigation season, May-October, days may be longer and there will be many days where the Grazier works in the morning and the evening, but is off during the day. This is a year-round position.
