- Report breakdowns and help the mechanic with repairs
- Hook up and drive ploughs, discs, planters and sprayers
You'll need
- Available to live on or near the farm
- Willing to work long hours in planting and harvest seasons
- Can read job cards and spray instructions
- Basic understanding of implements and settings
Helpful, not essential
- A pesticide application or spray course
- Experience with GPS guidance or auto-steer
- Combine harvester experience
What's in it for you
- Overtime paid during planting and harvest
- Farm housing with water and electricity

How to apply
- Make sure the role, the hours and working in Richards Bay really suit you before you apply.
- Keep copies of these ready to send: a farmer's reference letter with phone number plus tractor or spray course certificates.

- Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 9 working days.
Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Richards Bay.
Applying is free. Nobody from How2Apply will ever ask you to pay for anything to get this job.
Tips to get shortlisted
- List the machines you can drive and the implements you have used. Farmers want to know if you can plant, spray or harvest on day one.
- Mention GPS or auto-steer if you have used it. Modern grain farms struggle to find operators who know it.
