Taking ownership of crop strategies for baby leaf and herbs in a high-performance glasshouse environment.
Designing, overseeing, and analysing crop trials to drive continuous improvement and commercial viability.
Optimising crop nutrition, health, and yield using data-driven agronomic decisions.
Engaging with suppliers and internal teams to implement cutting-edge growing practices.
What We're Looking For:
Proven experience in team leadership within a commercial agronomy or technical grower role-this isn't just about growing plants, it's about growing people.
Strong scientific understanding, ideally backed by a relevant degree or qualification, and confidence in navigating the commercial realities of growing.

Lead from the front - guide a talented team, influence company direction, and make your mark in a growing business.
Innovation meets impact - work with cutting-edge vertical farming tech that's reshaping how we feed the world.
