The Role

We are looking for an organised and practical Farm Liaison Manager to act as the main point of contact for a network of agricultural producers.

You will visit farms regularly, ensure compliance with welfare and assurance standards, and coordinate the practical aspects of supply — including audits, packaging, sampling, and data reporting.

• Visit contracted farms to provide support and guidance
• Coordinate producer audits, sampling, and compliance checks
• Maintain accurate farm data, certification records, and production forecasts
• Manage packaging and materials requirements for each site
• Liaise with suppliers and internal teams to resolve any on-farm or logistical issues
• Monitor performance, identify risks, and drive continuous improvement
• Support the onboarding of new producers and ensure all standards are met before supply begins

Skills & Experience

• Experience in farm liaison, agricultural coordination, or assurance roles
• Knowledge of farm assurance schemes (e.g. Red Tractor, RSPCA Assured, Lion Code or similar)
• Good understanding of welfare, biosecurity, and food safety principles
• Strong organisational and communication skills
• Confident with data and record keeping (Excel or database systems)
• Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel regularly

Package

• £50,000 – £60,000 depending on experience
• 40-hour week, hybrid between office and field
• Regular travel across the UK
