Job description

What You’ll Do

As an Agronomist you’ll be at the heart of what our client does – working closely with farmers to provide expert agronomy advice. You’ll support them with practical, effective solutions, ensuring crops are nurtured to their full potential. While your expertise will cover a broad range of crops, your insights into spring barley will be especially valuable. Every day you’ll be building meaningful relationships with farmers and growers, understanding their needs and helping them achieve their goals.

What We’re Looking For

We’re after someone who is BASIS qualified, and while a FACTS qualification would be a bonus, it’s not a dealbreaker. We’re more interested in your hands‑on experience and how you approach the challenges of agronomy. If you’ve worked with spring barley, that’s great, but we’re equally open to people keen to learn and grow in this area. You’ll need to have a genuine passion for agriculture and a commitment to delivering excellent service. If you’re connected to the local agricultural community, even better – your knowledge and relationships will help you hit the ground running.

Who You Are

The ideal person for this role is someone who brings more than just professional qualifications to the table. Someone who approaches their work with dedication, but who also knows the importance of balance. You’re driven, value a sense of community and wellbeing, and understand how these qualities help make a great Agronomist. If you thrive in a supportive, non‑corporate environment and value flexibility and work‑life balance, you’ll fit right in.

Why You’ll Love It

This role is where your contributions truly matter. It’s not just about the work – it’s about being part of a company that treats its people with respect, values wellbeing, and allows you to grow professionally and personally. You’ll enjoy a competitive salary and benefits package, ongoing professional development, and a work environment where your happiness and health are a priority.
