Job Wanted - Staffordshire

Hello,

This post is also on the jobs board, so if it needs to be removed from here I understand.

I am located in South Staffordshire and, due to a career change, I am looking for my first job on a livestock farm (preferably sheep or cows). I intend to make farming my long term career, so I am willing to graft, do the hands on 'messy' jobs and learn the ropes.

Alternatively, I would be happy gain employment in a job related to livestock farming, e.g. fencing, hedgelaying etc, to give me that first taste of an agricultural job.

Please feel free to PM me if you have any opportunities, or if you would like to know more about my background and ambitions and I would be happy to discuss.

I've been on this forum a while now trying to find out as much as I can about the farming sector, but circumstances at the time meant I had to finish my university studies and work a normal 9-5 office job. However, now circumstances have changed, I can finally start looking for my first farming job.
 
I dont want to be too specific on a public forum (I value my privacy etc) but I'm based right next to the border of east Shropshire, so if I drive west I'm approx 15-20 mins from Bridgnorth and Telford, 30 mins drive north to Stafford and Penkridge area. I'd be happy to be more precise over PMs.
