We're looking for someone who enjoys working in a structured environment, has a keen eye for detail and takes pride in producing accurate, high-quality work. You'll be comfortable working with complex information, building relationships with a range of stakeholders and helping to ensure projects and contracts are managed efficiently from start to finish. Experience of contract management, project support or research administration would be advantageous.
About AHDB
We are the independent, impartial public body that unlocks success in British agriculture. Funded by a levy from over 100,000 British producers in the beef, lamb, pork, dairy and cereals sectors, we support and champion farmers, growers and processors, often where no one else can or will.
We share the expert, evidence-based research and reports that inform on-farm decision making. We promote British produce to the UK public through domestic marketing campaigns, and we identify and open new global export opportunities to help farm businesses grow.
We help levy payers learn more, sell more and export more to remain sustainable and profitable. Together, we deliver the insights, the influence and the impact that farmers need.
