As a specialist recruitment business working closely with the fresh produce and horticulture sectors, we're proud to support the BOA and its members. The Technical Conference is always a fantastic opportunity to hear from industry experts, learn about the latest research and innovations, and engage with growers and technical specialists from across the UK.

This event brings together some of the most forward-thinking minds in the industry, focusing on the challenges and opportunities around crop production, sustainability, pest and disease management, and technology in leafy salads and brassicas.

For us at MorePeople, it’s an invaluable chance to stay in tune with the evolving needs of this vital sector – so we can better support businesses in finding the right people and building strong technical teams.

If you’re attending the conference and would like to chat about recruitment, workforce planning, or careers in the sector – we’d love to connect. Come and say hello!
