Working Farm Manager

Tired of waiting for that promotion? Ready to take the next step into management?

I\’m working with a well-established arable farming enterprise. The business integrates modern technology, including GPS steering systems, yield mapping, fertiliser application technology, and N sensors, requiring a good level of computer literacy.

The Role:

This position is ideal for an experienced farm foreman looking to step up into a managerial role. While not expected to be in a tractor full-time, the successful candidate should be capable of operating machinery when needed.

Key responsibilities include:

1. Overseeing day-to-day farm operations, ensuring efficient workflow across multiple sites.
2. Managing record-keeping, compliance, and farm management software.
3. Supervising and supporting the existing team, including seasonal staff.
4. Overseeing grain drying and storage management.
5. Contributing to strategic farm planning and operational improvements.

The Ideal Candidate:

1. Strong experience in combinable crop farming and farm management systems.
2. Excellent computer literacy, particularly in farm management and precision farming software.
3. Capable of managing farm records, compliance, and operational logistics.
4. Practical knowledge of machinery operation but not primarily a tractor-driving role.
5. FACTS/BASIS certification is not required, as the business works with two agronomists.
6. PA1 and PA2 certifications and a forklift (FLT) certificate would be advantageous.
