With big expansion plans, they are looking to find someone to run the growing operation.

About The Role

This role will oversee 12 small vertical farming containers that are all growing different herbs. With a crop cycle between 30 and 50 days, you will always be busy. Herbs are grown from seed, so you will support in the propagation, crop walking, irrigation, and plant health through to harvest. Our client is continually looking to expand the operation, so you will be actively involved in trials.
