Soft Fruit Advisor in South East

Job description

About the Company

The company is a well-established organisation that's been helping growers succeed for years. They're the kind of organisation that really invests in their people and takes pride in the quality of their work. With a small, tight-knit UK team, you'll get to know your colleagues well while having the backing of international expertise.

About the Role

We're looking for a talented Soft Fruit Advisor to join a dynamic UK team. This is a fantastic chance to work with some of the country's leading soft fruit growers while being part of a global organisation that's genuinely making a difference in agriculture.

Responsibilities

• You'll be working remotely across the UK, with particular focus on the South East, providing expert technical advice to growers who really value what you bring to the table.
• You're connected to a global network of researchers and experts, so you'll always have access to the latest innovations and insights.
• The role covers everything from the technical side (fertilisation, crop protection, storage) through to being a trusted advisor on business strategy, sales, and regulatory matters.
• It's varied, challenging, and genuinely rewarding when you see the impact of your recommendations.

Qualifications

• You'll need a relevant degree, BASIS and FACTS qualifications, and several years of advisory experience in horticulture or agriculture.
• Most importantly, you need to really understand soil and substrate-based soft fruit production systems.

Required Skills

• Self-motivation is key, as you'll be working independently a lot of the time.
• A UK passport, residency, and full driving licence are essential.

Preferred Skills

• Any glasshouse or nursery experience would be a real bonus.

Pay range and compensation package

They're offering an attractive salary package with benefits and commission opportunities, plus genuine prospects for career advancement both in the UK and internationally. This isn't just a job - it's a chance to build a really interesting career in a sector that's constantly evolving.
