A varied role depending on the farm’s size, a stud secretary takes care of administrative tasks. This can vary from booking mares into stallions to invoicing and other duties required for the smooth running of the farm. Stud secretaries can also communicate with clients about breeding dates, veterinary procedures, foalings and stallion bookings. In addition, they prepare the correct paperwork for foal registration, breeding records and insurance.
Experience outside on a stud is essential as it provides good knowledge of what is involved in running a stud farm. Good organisational skills are required.
