Professional Experience: |
Since studying Agriculture at college, I have spent almost my entire working life in the industry.
Initially as a nutritionalist, working on cattle diet formulation and sales, before moving on to Insurance and finance to the farming Sector.
Then followed a period supplying wind turbines to farms, advising on approriate models, and site planning, as well as an understanding of the Renewable Energy market in the UK. This meant developing relationships with turbine manufacturers, planning consultants, Regional Power Supply authorities, as well as engineers.
Following redundancy, I returned to Ruminant Nutrition.
Currently managing a team of 10 Sales professionals, and providing more advanced knowledge and technical support to then, ensuring the business in the regions remains profitable.
