About Us:
Farm Relief is an Agri-services business supplying skilled labour, Agri services, and fencing to farms and industry clients nationwide. We also provide management services to Agri food businesses. We're looking for a capable, self-motivated individual to run the day-to-day office including marketing & assisting with coordinating general services.
Job Summary:
We're seeking an Admin/Marketing Person for a busy, varied role — primarily admin-focused, covering reception, accounts, marketing and co-ordination of our general services. No two days are the same — you'll need to be comfortable moving between tasks, using your own initiative, and occasionally representing the business at trade shows.
This is a 9-month fixed-term contract with real potential to grow into a full-time, permanent role focused on developing and coordinating general service contracts for the business.
This role offers excellent exposure to a wide range of functions within an Agri-business — admin, accounts, service co-ordination, and marketing — making it an ideal opportunity for a business or Agri-related student or graduate looking to build broad, hands-on experience.

Reception & Office Admin: First point of contact — answering calls, greeting visitors, managing general queries
- Day-to-day office administration, filing, and record-keeping

Accounts:
- Basic bookkeeping support (invoicing, purchase orders, reconciliations)
- Liaising with suppliers and customers on account queries
Co-ordination:
- Coordinating general service placements & Agri food contracts
- Scheduling and liaising with workers, contractors, and clients
- Supporting contract administration across service lines
Marketing:
- Managing social media and promotional content
- Preparing marketing materials, price lists, and service information
- Representing the business at trade shows and exhibitions as required
Requirements:
- Strong administrative and IT skills — confident with MS Office (Word, Excel, Outlook)
- Experience using Odoo (or similar ERP/business management software) an advantage; full training on our system will be provided
- Previous experience in an admin, reception, or office co-ordination role an advantage
- Marketing or social media experience a bonus, not essential
- Excellent communication and organisational skills
- Able to work on own initiative and manage a varied workload without close supervision
- Full clean driving licence (for occasional trade show/event attendance)
- Comfortable with a role that isn't routine — priorities can shift day to day
Contract Details:
- 9-month fixed-term contract, with the intention to develop into a permanent, full-time position focused on developing and coordinating general service contracts.
- Minimum notice period of 4 weeks applies — candidates must be able to commit to the full contract term.
- Salary: €28,000 per annum.
