Are you passionate about the art of butchery? Do you take pride in your craftsmanship and enjoy working with quality, locally raised meats?

Willowtree Farm is looking for a skilled and motivated Butcher / Meat Cutter to join our growing team!

At Willowtree Farm, we believe that great butchery is a craft worth preserving. Our artisanal butcher shop takes pride in traditional meat-cutting techniques, working with locally sourced beef, pork, lamb, and poultry.

Unlike conventional grocery store meat departments, we work with whole carcasses, giving our butchers the opportunity to practise and develop the full range of their trade.

We're looking for someone who shares our commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and exceptional customer service.

What You'll Be Doing

- Breaking down whole carcasses of beef, pork, and lamb into retail-ready cuts.
- Preparing high-quality cuts of meat with precision and consistency.
- Working with our team to create specialty cuts and value-added products.
- Maintaining the highest standards of food safety, cleanliness, and product presentation.
- Providing knowledgeable, friendly service to our customers.
- Contributing ideas and expertise to help our butcher shop continue to grow.

What We're Looking For

- Minimum 2–3 years of professional butchery or meat-cutting experience.
- Experience with whole-carcass breakdown is a strong asset.
- A genuine passion for traditional butchery and quality meats.
- Strong knife skills, attention to detail, and pride in workmanship.




- A positive attitude and the ability to work well as part of a team.
- A willingness to continue learning and refining your craft.

Why Join Willowtree Farm?

- Full-time, year-round employment in an established farm market.
- The prospect to practise traditional butchery rather than repetitive production-line cutting.
- Work with quality meats sourced from local farms.
- A supportive, team-oriented environment where craftsmanship is valued.
- The opportunity to grow your skills and build a long-term career with us.
