This is not your average Managing Director role.

An ambitious, founder-led group operating in the global agri-tech and horticulture sectors is seeking a dynamic, entrepreneurial Managing Director to lead its capital equipment division – a business already active in 40+ countries and poised for transformative growth.

With the global urgency around climate resilience and food security , this division delivers unquie systems that help growers protect high-value crops from weather volatility and improve yields sustainably. It’s a business with real-world relevance, deep technical expertise, and massive potential.

The Mission

To transform this strong foundation into the leading global brand in its sector – through:

  • Expansion of international operations and new market entry
  • Bold sales leadership that triples high-value deals in the medium term
  • Operational excellence in supply chain, customer experience, and innovation
  • Culture-first leadership that embeds purpose into performance

What’s expected

You’ll be responsible for:

  • Leading and mentoring a number of international business units and a global sales team
  • Personally owning key relationships with global accounts
  • Coordinating innovation and product development across teams and regions
  • Driving strategy execution and operational discipline
  • Shaping and sustaining a culture of openness, high energy, and shared ambition

You’ll bring

  • A strong track record of international business growth
  • Leadership in capital sales, ideally within horticulture, agri-tech, or similar
  • Experience building and running subsidiary operations across borders
  • Commercial fluency, people-centred leadership, and strategic capability
  • A restless drive for continuous improvement, innovation, and delivery

This is a rare opportunity to build a truly global business , work closely with a visionary board and lead a values-led team committed to people and creating good.

Significant international travel is expected.
UK or EU base preferred, with flexibility.
