wrangler
Ranch hand specialist
A wrangler is someone who handles or herds animals, especially horses or cattle on a ranch: The wranglers got the horses saddled before dawn.
The term extends to anyone who manages difficult things or people: a data wrangler organizes messy information, a celebrity wrangler keeps talent on schedule.
To wrangle is to argue or to herd—both involve struggle.
