Step into this ESG Consultant role and build something that matters in AgriTech.
Farming is under pressure to cut emissions, prove traceability and report on environmental impact in ways it never had to a decade ago.
This Sheffield-based AgriTech startup is building the tools that let food producers measure and improve their footprint, and it needs an ESG Consultant who understands both the science and the commercial reality behind it.
The business is small, the mission is big, and the gap between the two is where you'll spend most of your time.
Here's what you'll be doing: Lead ESG assessments for agricultural and food sector clients, from data collection through to final reporting Translate complex sustainability metrics into clear, actionable recommendations that clients can actually use Build and refine ESG frameworks specific to AgriTech supply chains, working closely with the product team Track regulatory change across environmental and sustainability reporting standards, and flag what it means for clients Present findings to clients and internal stakeholders, including non-technical audiences Support new business pitches with ESG expertise and credible, evidence-based positioning Here are the skills you'll need: A few years' experience in ESG consulting, sustainability reporting, or a closely related environmental role Working knowledge of frameworks like GRI, SASB or TCFD, and the confidence to apply them practically Strong analytical skills.
You'll need to make sense of messy data and turn it into something clear Comfortable communicating with clients directly, not just producing reports that sit in a drawer An interest in agriculture or food systems helps, but isn't essential if you're willing to learn fast The adaptability to pick up new tasks outside your job description.
This is a startup, not a department Key perks and benefits: £33,000 to £41,500, depending on experience Equity in the business.
If this works, you share in it Hybrid working based from Sheffield, with genuine flexibility on hours A dedicated learning and development budget to build your ESG expertise further Flat structure.
No layers of management between you and decisions that matter Why pursue a career in AgriTech?
AgriTech sits at the point where food security, climate policy and investor pressure all meet, and that's not going away.
Sheffield has become a genuine hub for this work, with strong links between the city's research base and a growing cluster of agricultural innovation businesses.
An ESG Consultant who gets in now, at a startup still shaping its own methods, has more room to grow into a senior or specialist role than they would at a larger, slower-moving consultancy.
