Who We Are
Regenified was established in 2022 by trailblazers in regenerative agriculture. Our founders, Gabe Brown and Dr. Allen Williams, are recognised leaders in this vital movement, dedicated to transforming mainstream farming practices. You may have seen their journey featured in films such as Kiss the Ground, Common Ground, Carbon Cowboys, and Roots So Deep.

At Regenified, our mission is to safeguard the integrity of regenerative agriculture, ensuring it is much more than a fleeting trend. We honour and reward farmers committed to adopting ecosystem-restoring practices, as well as brands setting the standard for transparency and regenerative sourcing. Our aim is to transition global supply chains to regenerative agriculture by offering the most trusted standards and verification services. Our standards are approved by some of the largest grocery chains worldwide, and we actively verify large tracts of farmland producing a diverse range of crops, proteins, and produce.

Regenified is seeking a dedicated and detail-oriented Lead Field Verifier to join our team. The Field Verifier will carry out comprehensive field assessments of farms and agricultural operations. This role is essential to ensure that farms meet Regenified’s rigorous standards for regenerative agriculture.

4. Stakeholder Engagement
   • Liaise with farmers, agronomists, and other stakeholders to explain verification processes and standards.
   • Offer guidance and support to farmers on implementing and maintaining regenerative practices.
   • Participate in training sessions and workshops to stay updated on the latest regenerative agriculture techniques.
5. Data Management
   • Maintain accurate and organised records of field assessments and verifications.
   • Use digital tools and software for data collection, analysis, and reporting.
   • Ensure the confidentiality and integrity of all collected data.
