Potato Manager

This is not a passenger role.

A highly professional and progressive farming business is restructuring and strengthening its operational leadership team and is now looking to appoint a new Potato Manager to take ownership of a significant potato enterprise within the wider farming operation.

Working directly alongside the senior leadership team and integrated closely with the wider operational structure, this role will major on:

• Potato crop planning
• Planting execution
• Irrigation management
• Crop husbandry & protection
• Harvest management
• Storage oversight
• Grading coordination
• Labour planning & management
• Daily potato operations

Importantly, this is not a standalone silo role. You will work closely alongside:

• The Operations Manager
• Wider field and logistics teams
• Machinery operators
• Labour teams
• Haulage and operational support functions

This is a fast-moving commercial farming business where communication, operational coordination and practical decision-making matter daily.

What we are looking for

You may already be operating as:

• A Potato Manager
• Assistant Farm Manager
• Vegetable Production Manager
• Senior Crop Supervisor
• Or a capable operational individual ready to step into broader responsibility

What matters most:

• Strong practical potato knowledge
• Commercial awareness
• Team leadership capability
• Attention to detail
• Ability to operate within a high-output farming environment

The Package

• Strong salary reflective of experience
• Vehicle
• Ongoing training and development

The opportunity

This is an excellent opportunity to join a business investing heavily into its farming operations with genuine long-term progression and operational influence available for the right individual.
