This is a chance to join a progressive farming team, supporting the effective growing and harvesting of crops while being part of a business that's investing in new technologies, people and practices.
What's the role?
You'll be reporting to the Operations Director and overseeing the outdoor growing, focusing on vegetable production. The team is professional, supportive, and hands-on and you'll get the chance to walk the fields as part of the interview process. As the Growing Manager, you will be:
* Oversee harvesting, crop storage and stock rotation to meet customer demand.
* Taking a hands-on approach for the field operations - from irrigation systems to pesticide checks.
* Supporting and motivating the team, including agency staff, ensuring high standards of quality, hygiene, and safety.
* Playing a role in planning, resourcing, and ensuring operations run smoothly throughout the season.
* Being part of the farm's growth journey - this is a business that's not standing still.
What skills do I need?
You'll bring practical farming knowledge and experience, ideally from vegetables, salads, or even combinable crops. Harvesting and pesticide experience would be a real advantage.
You'll be confident and self-sufficient in a role that's both hands-on and forward-thinking.
Key qualities include:
* Awareness of crop quality and defects.
* Knowledge of pesticides and safety processes.
* Strong communication and team leadership.
* Good IT skills and time management.
* A full driving licence.
