Description:

Farm Help – Full-Time, Year-Round Albin Farms | Newman, IL


$39,520 + to start, based on experience. Full-time, year-round.


Albin Farms is a family-owned row-crop operation in Newman, Illinois. We've been farming this ground for generations, and we run on the latest ag technology available. We're growing our team and looking for a Farm Help member to join us full-time, year-round. No two days look the same, and you'll be a key part of keeping our fieldwork on schedule and our equipment running.


What you'll do

  • Transport and unload grain
  • Operate and maintain tractors, wheel loaders, planters, manure spreaders, and tillage equipment
  • Keep fieldwork moving on schedule across the season
  • Help maintain equipment so it's ready to go when we need it

What we're looking for

  • High school diploma or GED
  • Experience with large ag equipment is a plus, but we're willing to train the right person
  • Farming background preferred, not required. If you're new to row-crop work but have a strong equipment or mechanical background, we want to hear from you
  • CDL Class A preferred, not required. We'll support the right candidate in working toward one
  • Comfort with farm equipment technology is a plus
  • A great attitude is a must

Why Albin Farms

  • Starting pay of $39,520+, based on experience, with room to grow
  • Full-time, year-round work, not seasonal
  • Hands-on training and support if you're newer to row-crop or large equipment
  • A family-owned operation where you're part of the team, not just a number
  • Benefits details shared during the interview, ask us anything

Apply now! We'd love to talk with you.

Albin Farms is an equal opportunity employer.
