Technical Sales Agronomist

Horticulture – North – West England – £Competitive + Company Car

Sustainable growing is now the focus for most commercial growers. Instead of just being part of the conversation, this is your chance to genuinely make a difference in how crops are grown.

Are you passionate about integrated pest management and ready to develop your career with a renowned, global horticulture brand?

We're working exclusively with Royal Brinkman as they look to strengthen their UK team with a Technical Sales Agronomist covering the Northwest.

Permanent, full-time role with competitive salary and bonus structure. Company car and travel expenses covered. Formal training to support your technical expertise. Work with a respected global brand in sustainable crop protection. Attend industry events and occasional international meetings.

Reporting to the UK Sales Manager, you'll support protected salad, soft fruit, and ornamental growers across the Northwest (Lancashire to Staffordshire). Your focus will be on providing technical advice, helping growers implement tailored IPM strategies, and supporting crop success through solutions such as growing media, fertilisers, and crop protection products.

• Act as the first point of contact for growers needing technical support
• Build strong, trusted relationships with commercial growers
• Crop walking, identifying challenges, and recommending practical solution
• Support growers to create and implement tailored IPM strategies
• Write visit reports, update forecasts, and manage orders
• Keep connected with the wider European team on product developments and industry trends
• Attend trade shows, conferences, and occasional overseas meetings
• Manage your own diary – around 50% of your time with growers, the rest working from home

• Self‑starter, happy to plan and manage your own days
• UK‑based experience with protected salad, soft fruit, or ornamental crops, either in commercial growing or technical advisory roles
• FACTS and BASIS are ideal, but training and support are available for the right person
• A confident communicator who provides practical, data‑driven solutions
• A valid UK driving licence, with flexibility for occasional overnight travel
• Keen to keep learning about new crops, products, and technologies
