• Excellent consultative selling and listening skills
• The ability to build credibility quickly with farmers
• A target-driven mindset with commercial awareness
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage your own pipeline
• Willingness to travel to agricultural shows and events

This is not a cold-calling role but it does require confidence, resilience, and the ability to convert warm interest into committed customers.
