People consultant opportunity highlights change in agricultural sector

The agricultural industry is evolving and becoming more sophisticated through the integration of advanced technologies, data-driven decision-making, and sustainable practices. However, one key aspect is sometimes overlooked – the people to make it happen.

 

Recognising this, REAL Success is recruiting a new People Consultant to help drive leadership, HR support, and workforce development across UK agriculture at a time of innovation and change in the sector.

This opportunity demonstrates a growing focus on workforce development and education, reflecting a shift towards a more future-ready sector. The increasing demand for comprehensive HR, leadership, and management support in the farming sector reflects a growing awareness that the well-being of farm staff is crucial to the overall success and sustainability of the industry.

By bringing on a dedicated People Consultant, alongside its team of partners across the UK, REAL Success is investing in resources to foster a healthier, more productive work environment on farms across the UK.

“REAL Success is the UK’s only specialist consultancy offering a unique combination of recruitment, people development, HR support, and training exclusively to the agricultural sector,” says Founder and Managing Director Paul Harris. “And as demand for our work continues to grow, we’re looking for someone to join the team and grow with us.

“They will be joining a supportive team that cares about making a difference, not just on paper, but in the day-to-day lives of people who keep UK agriculture running.”

Working alongside Paul Harris and the REAL Success team, this full-time role directly responds to the growing demand for more support to farmers, from family liaison and succession planning to team dynamics, leadership and management training, and recruitment services.

"People are the heart of agriculture. Investing in their growth and well-being improves productivity and ensures a sustainable future for the industry," says Mr Harris. "Our new People Consultant will help us meet the increasing demand for HR and leadership support, enabling farms to thrive."
