Passionate about sustainable growing?
Want to work with growers to improve crop health and yields?
Looking for a role that blends technical advice with relationship building?
This is a brand-new role, and a fantastic opportunity to join a global IPM business with a smaller, close-knit feel in the UK. You'll get the best of both worlds, backed by a world-renowned horticultural brand, while still being part of a supportive team where your voice really matters.
What's in it for you
* A full-time, permanent role.
* Competitive salary and bonus structure
* Car allowance and travel expenses covered.
* Formal qualification training, if required.
* The chance to work with a respected global brand in sustainable crop protection.
* Opportunities to attend industry events and travel internationally.
* Support from a collaborative team with a clear scope for career development.
The Role
Reporting to the UK Commercial Manager, who is a knowledgeable and supportive person, you'll work with protected vegetable and salad growers across the UK.
Your day-to-day will include:
* Building strong relationships with growers and acting as a trusted technical advisor.
* Crop walking, identifying challenges, and recommending tailored IPM strategies.
* Providing ongoing technical support throughout the growing season.
* Writing visit reports, updating forecasts, and inputting orders.
* Keeping connected with the wider European team on product developments and industry news.
* Attending trade shows, conferences, and occasional overseas meetings.
* Managing your own diary-spending about 50% of your time out with growers, the rest working from home.
This isn't about pushing products-it's about offering expert advice, building trust, and seeing the results of your recommendations first-hand.
About You
* You'll have experience and expertise working with protected vegetable or salad crops. This could be in a similar role or in a commercial growing setting.
* In-depth knowledge of integrated pest management.
* Ideally, you'll have your FACTS and/or BASIS.
* Confident communicator, able to build relationships and provide practical, data-driven solutions.
* A valid UK driving licence, with flexibility to stay away from home a few nights a week.
