Ambitious Agricultural Sustainability Specialist wanted to drive real impact in AgriTech from Boston.
Farming is under pressure to produce more with less land, less water and a shrinking margin for error.
The company behind this role is an established AgriTech SME, built around sustainable crop systems and the data that makes them work.
They're growing, not scrambling, and they need an Agricultural Sustainability Specialist who can turn environmental targets into practical changes on real farms.
Here's what you'll be doing: Assess farm and supply chain operations against sustainability benchmarks, then build improvement plans that actually get implemented Monitor soil health, water usage and carbon data across client sites, flagging issues before they become expensive ones Work directly with growers and agronomists to introduce lower-impact practices without wrecking yield Prepare sustainability reports and certifications for clients and regulators, keeping the paperwork as tight as the fieldwork Track emerging AgriTech tools and regulation, and translate what matters into recommendations the business can use Support bids and client proposals with sustainability data and credible projections Here are the skills you'll need: A degree in agriculture, environmental science or a related field, plus a few years applying it in practice Working knowledge of sustainability frameworks and carbon accounting relevant to agriculture Comfortable with data: you can read a spreadsheet of soil samples and know what it's actually telling you Strong written communication.
Reports need to be clear enough for a grower and precise enough for an auditor Able to manage several client sites and deadlines at once without dropping any of them A genuine interest in where AgriTech is heading, not just where it's been Key perks and benefits: Salary of $51,000 to $65,000, depending on experience Hybrid working, so you're not tied to a desk in Boston every single day Private medical insurance and pension contribution Annual leave and flexible working arrangements Bonus scheme and clear routes for professional development as the company grows Why pursue a career in AgriTech?
AgriTech is one of the few sectors where the commercial case and the environmental case point the same way, and that makes the work genuinely satisfying.
Boston sits inside a region with deep agricultural roots and a growing cluster of AgriTech employers, so the network and the opportunities tend to compound over time.
Specialists who get good at this now will be the ones running sustainability functions in five years, not applying for them.
