Mount View Sport Horses is a small breeding/training facility located in the foothills overlooking the city of Tauranga and harbour. Tauranga is 2 hours south of Auckland on the east coast of the North Island. We have been breeding European Warmbloods out of imported mares for over 20yrs and have a very good reputation for breeding top level jumpers and horses with good characters. Our horses have been successfully competed within New Zealand and internationally. We're looking for a rider to join our team to take on the role of training our young horses aged 3-6yo. Ideally this rider would be European trained and have a well established understanding of training young horses in dressage and over jumps. This rider needs to be able to work independently and confidently with young horses. Not just on an arena but also in wide open spaces such as hacking out on our farm and on outings. We have an enthusiastic team of people here, and we're very flexible with weekends so the staff can enjoy our beautiful country.
