If you're an experienced Agronomist who's tired of being pushed to sell products you don't fully believe in, this is your chance to break away from the corporate script. We're working with a well-established, independent agronomy business that lets you work the way you know works best. No pressure to push products. No pointless box-ticking. Just honest, practical agronomy and the freedom to run your own client base. This business is growing and investing in its future - and yours. They're looking for another Agronomist to join their close-knit team, where everyone's voice counts. If leadership is on your radar, there's a genuine path to progress here. You'll have the autonomy to build your client relationships your way, with the backing and resources of a highly respected name in the industry. What We're Looking For: Our client are after a confident, knowledgeable Agronomist who wants more control over how they work - someone who's not only technically solid but also genuinely values long-term relationships with growers. You'll need to be comfortable managing your own workload and making independent decisions that are in your clients' best interests, not the company's product line. You should have: • Proven experience as an Agronomist, with a track record of supporting arable clients - ideally across a mix of cropping systems. • A strong existing client base (or the ability to bring one with you). You'll be supported to grow it further, but you'll need a solid starting point. • FACTS and BASIS qualified • A good understanding of the challenges facing UK arable farming, particularly around environmental pressures, policy changes, and market volatility. • A self-motivated, proactive approach - this role isn't micromanaged, so you'll need to be comfortable managing your own time and priorities. • Ideally, some experience or interest in regenerative or sustainable agriculture - many of the clients are leaning in this direction, and our client is supporting them on that journey. What You'll Be Doing: This is a hands-on, grower-first role where you'll be trusted to work in a way that suits your clients and your own professional style. • Providing independent agronomic advice to a portfolio of arable clients - from crop planning to nutrient management and pest control strategies. • Visiting farms regularly, building close relationships and offering practical, data-driven guidance throughout the growing season. • Tailoring recommendations based on soil health, environmental needs, crop objectives, and farm-specific goals - not what's sitting in a warehouse. • Staying up to date with industry developments, environmental legislation, and best practices - and passing that knowledge on to your clients in plain English. • Contributing to the wider team's success - whether that's mentoring junior agronomists, contributing to trials, or helping shape the direction of the business. • Managing your own diary and client relationships, with the support of a small but highly experienced team behind you.
