Job Description

Jora New Zealand will close on 9th September 2026. Thank you for being with us, we are cheering you on as you continue your career journey. Machine Operator / Vineyard Maintenance — Loveblock Wines, Awatere Valley Marlborough We don't chase conformity. We chase naked terroir. Loveblock farms organically, low-intervention, and completely unafraid to do things differently — because the land tells you what it needs, if you're willing to listen. That takes a good tractor operator who actually pays attention. We're after someone who can run a tractor like it's second nature — mowing, spraying, spreading compost, cultivating cover crops — and who's just as handy keeping the gear that does it, (mowers, mulchers, sprayers, trimmers) running clean and sharp. Add in some irrigation, trellis work, and general vineyard graft, and you've got the job. What you'll need: A driver's licence and a genuine can-do streak Growsafe certificate is a bonus, but can be arranged Comfortable starting early, and pitching in on the odd weekend at harvest An eye for detail — vineyards change daily, and so do you A team mentality, a straight-up work ethic, and respect for doing things safely No corner-cutting, no shortcuts, no bulk chemicals masking bad farming. If that sounds like your kind of vineyard. Loveblock Wines — Awatere Valley, Marlborough. Certified organic. Deliberately unconventional. #J-18808-Ljbffr
