Agronomy Consultant - Grapes & Avocados

Whether you are a commercial/r&d/production agronomist or working on a family/corporate farm in the horticulture industry, this is an opportunity to transition into servicing growers holistically without the agchem/fertiliser 'monkey on your back'.

Who you will work for?

About a decade ago now, an agronomist who had been working for a retail business decided that they were sick of offering a 'fee in a drum' service. This business has since grown to service predominately avocado and grape growers across VIC and QLD. They are leading the way in agronomy consultancy services, and are driven to offer a supportive, informative and no-nonsense service.

The role itself?

This is an opportunity to join their team based in Mildura and learn from one of the best viticulture agronomists going around. Your day to day activities in this role will include:

• promoting the companies service offering
• advising and supporting growers through agchem and fertiliser plans
• constructing informative reports and recommendations
• offering technical guidance and assistance direct to growers
• liaising with key industry stakeholders to stay up to date with new technologies
• collecting, analysing and interpreting data
• supporting, maintaining and improving current client relationships
• progressing and developing the reach of the business

What kind of person will fit the role?

The perfect person for this role would be someone that has at least 5 years experience in the fruit/veg/seedling industry. We are going to employ a person that has a proven ability to establish, maintain and develop relationships that will lead to the growth of the business. If you don't quite tick all these boxes but are close, you should still consider applying.

How will you be rewarded?

You will be rewarded for your contributions to the business with an attractive salary (proportionate to your experience and skill set), 9.5% superannuation, full use of a company vehicle and access to all home office equipment.
