Employment


​EMPLOYMENT

​All About Equine Animal Rescue (AAE) began as an all-volunteer organization. With gratitude to an incredibly passionate and robust volunteer team, AAE thrived for a solid 10 years with volunteers at its helm.  A large percentage of our volunteer force is of retirement age+. When COVID-19 happened, we were forced to reduce our volunteer staffing levels out of concern for everyone's health and safety.  As a result, we hired a full-time staff person and a few part-time staff to help carry out our day-to-day operations.  We're still not operating at the full volunteer capacity that AAE enjoyed prior to COVID-19, so staff brings consistency to our day-to-day activities. Staff is necessary to continue the growth of our programs, to provide more consistent participation, steady operations, and continued organizational growth and development.

AAE is always on the lookout for talented individuals. If you're interested in employment with AAE, please submit an ​application or resume and cover letter to [email protected] describing the position you're interested in and compensation requirements.  If we don't have a position available now, we'll keep your resume on file for future needs.


Horse Care/Ranch Help
If you like caring for horses, AAE runs two shifts at the barn each day, one from 8 am to noon-ish, and another from 3 pm to 7 pm-ish.  We have one or two part-time positions that work with our volunteers during am and pm shifts to provide basic care for our horses.  Activities include feeding, mucking, medicating and treating horses, facility projects, general cleanup, and other special projects around the barn, as needed.  Individuals must have well-rounded experience with horses, must be able to work in extreme weather conditions (e.g. summer heat, winter cold, rain, sleet, snow), and must be able to safely lift/move heavy loads (e.g. hay bales 75-100#+). Applicants, please be reliable, adaptable to changes, and able to follow instructions. Must be eligible to work in the US and have own transportation.

Please NOTE:  There is no riding, exercising, or horse training with these positions, other than supporting basic care needs.
Trainer
If you are passionate about rescue, and you practice natural horsemanship with an emphasis on patience, kindness, and connection to achieve your goals, AAE has need for an experienced trainer(s) to help educate our horses. Some are learning, and some are re-learning. Horses here have many needs, some with basic handling and groundwork, others under saddle.  Some simply need further exploration.  You are versatile, capable, and truly in it for the horse.  You should have broad experience, including experience with mustangs as a bonus.  
Riding Instructor
Seeking experienced riding instructor(s) primarily for teaching the basics of riding to beginner youth and adults.
Used Tack Store Sales and Marketing
AAE operates a used tack store in Shingle Springs selling donated tack and other horse/ranch-related items.  Sales generated through the store support AAE operations.  Our volunteer workforce at the store has made huge strides, and the store provides tremendous support for AAE operating on part-time hours.  The store can operate full-time hours and offer online sales with the help of a full-time position and/or two or three part-time positions.   Store positions include sales associates and marketing/social media (online sale).  Hours include weekend shifts for full-time position, and at least one weekend shift for part-time positions.  Must be able to lift heavy loads (35# or more).
Fundraising/Events Coordinator
AAE operations are supported by primarily by donations, fundraising activities, our annual Boots & Bling event, grants, and fee-based programs, as well as proceeds from AAE's Used Tack Store.  
Fundraising is an ongoing need at AAE, and AAE is considering adding a full-time fundraising coordinator or a couple part-time fundraising coordinators to help coordinate fundraising activities and events in the community.  Under consideration will be individuals with experience coordinating fundraising activities and events from top to bottom.​
Grant Research and Writing
Grants provide an important level of support for AAE.  AAE has been served by a volunteer grants writing team since founding.  However, as AAE has grown and acquired new property in Pilot Hill, AAE's grants needs are outgrowing our volunteer team.  If you are an experienced grant writer, AAE is considering adding PT or FT grant writers to our team. If interested, please submit your resume and cover letter to [email protected].
