ABOUT THE POSITION
The Water Well / Bison Technician is a dual faceted position where time is split between working with the Bison Department and the Natural Resources Department on Vermejo Park Ranch.

The other half of your time will be spent working with the Castle Rock bison herd as part of the ranch’s Bison Department. This will include open range and pasture moves, Bison Works (sorting, vaccinating, shipping, etc.), checking on bison, and feeding while bison are in the corrals. Turner Enterprises and Vermejo Park Ranch embrace low stress stockmanship when handling bison, and any applicant for the position must be well versed in modern low-stress livestock handling methods or be willing to attend courses (company provided) on the subject. You must be able to work alone for extended periods of time in remote areas.
