Ambitious Agricultural Sustainability Specialist wanted to drive real impact in AgriTech from Southampton.
UK farming is under pressure to cut emissions, use less water and produce more from less land, and the technology to make that happen is being built right now by small, fast-moving teams rather than legacy agribusiness giants.
This role sits inside one of them.
It's an early-stage AgriTech company building tools that help growers and supply chains hit sustainability targets without wrecking yields, and they need someone who understands both the science and the commercial reality of farming.
Here's what you'll be doing: Assess the environmental impact of client farming operations and recommend practical, measurable improvements Translate sustainability data into reports that growers and agribusiness partners can actually act on Work with the product team to shape features around soil health, carbon tracking and water usage Build relationships with farms, co-ops and supply chain partners across the South of England Keep on top of UK and EU agricultural policy so the company's advice stays compliant and current Support pilot projects on client sites, gathering field data and feeding it back into the product Here are the skills you'll need: A degree in agriculture, environmental science, or a related field, plus a few years working in sustainability or farming systems Comfortable reading data and spreadsheets, and explaining what they mean to someone without a science background Genuine interest in AgriTech and how software can change how farms are run Able to work independently and make decisions without waiting for a committee Strong written communication.
You'll be producing client-facing reports regularly Willing to get out to farms and sites, not just sit behind a screen Key perks and benefits: £32,000 to £47,000, depending on experience Equity in the business.
You'll own a piece of what you're building Hybrid working between Southampton and home, with flexible hours A proper learning and development budget, not a token gesture Flat structure.
You'll have direct access to founders and decision-makers from day one Why pursue a career in AgriTech?
AgriTech is one of the few sectors where sustainability isn't a side project, it's the whole point.
Southampton's position on the south coast, surrounded by agricultural land and with strong transport links, makes it a genuinely practical base for anyone working across farms and supply chains.
Get in early at a company this size and the career path writes itself: more responsibility, more equity, more say in how the product develops.
