Job Details
Technical Consultant | Biological Crop Protection | East Anglia
We are excited to be working with a world-leading biological crop protection company who are looking to further strengthen their team.
About our Client
Since its establishment in the 1960s, our client has built on its company ethos of honesty and integrity to become a respected and trusted provider of biological control and pollination products. They strive to improve the health of both the people and the planet as they make agriculture and horticulture healthier, safer, and more productive. Although they are mainly known for their products, our client is essentially a knowledge company that invests heavily in R&D - they believe that sharing knowledge and training staff is an important step towards achieving sustainable agriculture and horticulture.
About the Role
As Technical Consultant it will be your job to highlight the importance of biological controls to growers and farmers in East Anglia. You will be responsible for creating sales plans for the key customers in fresh produce/commercial horticulture. Using your technical expertise and credibility in this marketplace you will forge and maintain relationships with new and existing businesses. You will give support and advice to your customers and, when appropriate, sell the right solution to the growers and distributors.
The Ideal Candidate
We are keen to speak with candidates with enthusiasm, professionalism, and experience (and/or qualifications) in entomology, agriculture, or horticulture. Perhaps you have been working in an agronomic role or as an advisor or technical sales consultant with another product in fresh produce or commercial horticulture. Experience of the soft fruit and/or protected/covered crops would be advantageous, as would BASIS qualification. If you are a self-starter and can blend technical know-how with sales and account management skills, then we want to hear from you.
