Hi Folks, we currently have a few positions going pruning Vines here in the Hawkes Bay Region.

The people we require need to be reasonably tall over 5 foot 10 inches for up high pruning. The job will start as soon as the weather has cleared so if you currently living outside the Hawkes Bay you would need to make your way here quickly.

If accepted for a position then we are that you stay with us here at The Rotten Apple Back packers for the duration of your employment.

We look forward to seeing great CV's and really positive people to join us.

Cheers Rotten Apple Management.
