We’re looking for an Agricultural Consultant with strong experience in SFI and Capital Grants to join our independent consultancy, supporting farming businesses across the South West.
The role will initially focus on grant and scheme work, before developing into a broader farm business consultancy position over time.

Why Join Us
We are a small, wellestablished, independent consultancy focused on delivering practical advice that genuinely improves farm performance.

- Varied, hands on role across grants and wider business advice
- Direct client contact and responsibility from day one
- Clear progression into full farm consultancy
