Support the conduct of field trial visits.
Develop and flag innovative ideas for portfolio opportunities and solutions, based on product and agronomic know-how.
Effectively manage multi-trial sites on commercial farms, including site design, farmer liaison and compensation negotiations.
Plan, plant, manage and maintain crops for optimum trial success.
Assist in the training of new staff.
Contribute to the writing and maintenance of standard operating procedures.
Keep trial facilities in order and running, according to local quality and HSE standards.
Care for trial experimental and maintenance equipment.
Store experimental chemicals and plant material according to local quality and HSE standards.
Contribute to trial budget compliance.
