Description
This qualification reflects the role of independently employed persons who are responsible for organising their own work, leading others and planning for and carrying out tasks of complex and non-routine functions.

Employees will be expected to demonstrate knowledge of the impact of track and environmental conditions on racing animal welfare.
Employees may be required to handle greyhounds or horses in emergency situations and assist in marshalling prior to racing (depending on the individual's training plan).
