Whatever floats your goat!
After a year of working remotely in your bedroom you might be tempted to which careers for an outdoor, this might be for you.
The Old Irish Goat Society are currently looking for a new employee to herd and transport goat herds around various locations in Howth.
This is 'to reduce the cover of gorse, graze fire breaks and to create a more structurally diverse heathland vegetation'.
The successful candidate will be responsible for monitoring the health of the herd and carry out the necessary animal welfare treatments, amongst other responsibilities.
According to Ladbible, you won't only get to know the goats but you will receive a salary of €45,000 a year for your work.
Candidates are required to have experience with sheeps or goats and a valid driver's license.
They also state that you must have an aptitude for problem solving and excellent organisational skills.
The Irish Examiner reports that Sean Carolan, of the OIGS, said:
"We are looking for someone with herding experience with sheep or goats. The herder will manage the goat herd on Howth, move the goats on a daily basis from site to site and look after the breeding program."
If you think you are suited to the role you can apply here.
