Job Details
Having a close relationship with your farmers is always an important element of any business, however the magic really happens when you become integral cog in their team.
In this role you will become the key liaison between the farm and the processor, their guide and their trusted source of information. From working on sowing plans, to the agronomy, to the harvesting and storage and transport of their crops – you will be on hand every step of the way.
You will be responsible for a number of farmers in the area – who are already in supply contracts with this business – you will need to be influential in your character yet a supportive ear who will listen and take on feedback - reporting this back to our client to ensure that farmers feel fully supported.
Whilst there is an element of sales to this role, it is not the key function (circa 20%) – relationship building and the ability to maintain lasting on farm partnerships will rank high in your skill set.
What you’ll need to be considered for this opportunity:
• You’ll have a relevant Agricultural Degree and/or relevant experience in arable production
• Experience in a customer facing role on farm, whether this be sales, consultancy or agronomy.
• Knowledge of wider Agricultural industry and current affairs
• You’ll be commercially aware and astute
• You’ll have strong relationship skills and have an ability to adapt your style of communication
• Good negotiating and selling skills
• Strategic thinking, empathetic and able to react quickly under pressure
• Current driving licence – due to travel within role
What’s on offer?
• Strong remuneration package to include; competitive salary, health care scheme, company vehicle and a range of benefits.
