Agricultural Technician, Skättilljunga near Åhus, Sweden

Gårdsfisk was founded by the entrepreneurs Johan Ljungquist (marine biologist) and Mikael Olenmark Dessalles (civil engineer). The water-loving salesman and the technically brilliant "designer" teamed up - and developed a concept of fish farming on land.

Gårdsfisk wants to create sustainable food production and raise the world's most sustainable fish. The positive effects are several - to ensure that we can continue to eat fish but with reduced environmental impact, to keep the countryside alive by building fish stables on existing farms, fish manure is used as fertilizer on the land around the farms and to carefully manage our natural resources by ensure that the water is recycled without eutrophication.

We are currently looking for an aquaculture technician to join our adventure.

The main part of the job will consist of taking care of our animals inside the pre growing unit (0,2-20 grams). You will work in a team under the responsibility of the site manager.

Task description

• Monitoring water quality of the production system
• Grading / Counting / Feeding
• Sanitary maintenance of livestock systems
• Scheduled maintenance on recirculation systems
• Making sure the animals are in a low-stress environment and in a healthy state
• Making sure the facility meets hygiene standards
• Executing research protocols closely with the hatchery manager
• Participating in the alarm-shift routine and weekend routine (once every seven weeks)

Appreciated skills

• Strict in following procedures
• Technical skills to execute maintenance and repair
• Curiosity
• Autonomy
• Available during weekends every 7th week (according to the schedule)

Skill requirements

• English - good knowledge in writing and orally
• C Driving licence (will be appreciated)
• Graduate in aquaculture or other animals care

Gårdsfisk is a small but growing company and it is important that you share our environmental commitment - you understand our concept and what we are passionate about. You listen to, contribute and support the group and contribute to our team spirit. You will be responsible and drive the work with quality and we will set clear goals together. It's good if you are energetic and can keep a good pace - we are still relatively few in the company and sometimes you may need to step in and help with other things as well.
