The Person
You will be an experienced livestock or mixed-farming manager with the judgement, practical capability and leadership presence to oversee a large-scale operation.

Equally important will be your ability to lead and develop people, coordinate specialist advisers and contractors, manage competing priorities and build a positive, accountable and safety-focused culture.
