Do you dream of growing fresh, high-quality crops all year round, free from unpredictable weather? This is your chance to be part of the future of farming.

I'm looking for a Grower to join one of the most exciting and fast-growing businesses in vertical farming. With cutting-edge technology, a commitment to sustainability, and a vision to revolutionise food production, this company is on a mission to feed the world.

This isn't your typical farm job. You'll be working in a high-tech, climate-controlled environment, helping to produce top-quality crops with 250-400 times the yield of conventional farms, using just 3% of the water. If you love innovation, sustainability, and working with plants, this is the role for you.

What You'll Be Doing

• Overseeing the cultivation and maintenance of baby leaf and herb crops, ensuring optimal growth and quality.
• Managing crop trials to bring exciting new products to market.
• Monitoring and adjusting nutrients, treatments, and pest control in a highly controlled environment.
• Developing detailed growing instructions for each crop, ensuring consistency and efficiency.
• Engaging with external stakeholders, including seed and substrate suppliers, to stay ahead of industry trends.

What We're Looking For

• A relevant degree or 3+ years' experience in commercial growing, horticulture, or agribusiness.
• A strong mix of scientific knowledge and commercial awareness - you understand both the plants and the business.
• A proactive, problem-solving mindset - someone who takes ownership and gets things done.

Why Join?

• Innovation at its core - you'll work with cutting-edge technology, constantly improving and evolving.
• Sustainability-driven - play a key role in reducing food miles, water use, and land consumption.
• Fast decision-making - work in a dynamic environment where you can have a real impact.
• Career growth - as the business scales up, exciting new opportunities will emerge, this is a great time to get on the bus.

What's on Offer?

• Salary - competitive
• 30 days annual leave
• Private healthcare scheme
• 7% pension increasing by 1% each year capped at 10%
