Ranch and Livestock Worker

A central Kansas cattle operation near St. John is filling one ranch and livestock position for October 2026 through the beginning of April 2027, covering the winter feeding period and spring calving. At $19.71 per hour this is one of the better-paying hourly ranch job orders currently posted in the plains states. Six months of prior experience is required, so the employer is looking for someone who already knows cattle work rather than a beginner. The posted normal schedule is 45 hours per week, with actual hours varying as weather and stock conditions demand. The job order was posted at the end of August 2026 and remains active.
