• Maintaining accurate digital records using industry software such as GateKeeper

• Supporting timely deliveries by working closely with logistics teams

• Engaging with credit control to ensure prompt payments and maintain account health

• Contributing to a collaborative, farmer-focused team culture

What You’ll Bring

• BASIS-qualified (FACTS certification highly desirable)

• A solid understanding of UK arable farming 

• A confident communicator with a relationship-building mindset

• Strong commercial awareness and a proactive approach to winning and retaining business

• Comfortable working autonomously while collaborating with wider teams

• Well-organised with a commitment to keeping up-to-date records and meeting CPD requirements

Why Join?

• Work with a business where agronomy comes first, not sales targets

• Enjoy the freedom to manage your area, your clients, and your time

• Join a company that farmers respect and return to season after season
