Description

As an Agronomist, you will be on the frontlines of delivering tangible impact to smallholder farmers in our project regions. Your role is to support the adoption of regenerative, sustainable agricultural practices that improve soil health, increase yields, and contribute to ecosystem restoration.

  • Build strong relationships with local farming communities and cooperatives
  • Collect and report field data on practices, inputs, challenges, and outcomes
  • Work closely with monitoring and program teams to ensure consistent, high-quality field delivery

This role is ideal for someone passionate about agroecology, who thrives in hands-on environments and believes in empowering farmers as agents of change.

  • A diploma or degree in Agronomy, Agriculture, Agroecology, or a related field
  • Hands-on experience supporting smallholder or rural farmers, preferably in developing regions
  • Practical knowledge of soil health, agroecological systems, and regenerative farming practices
  • Strong interpersonal and training skills—able to explain technical concepts clearly and engagingly
  • A proactive, self-motivated work style, with comfort operating in remote field environments
  • Bonus: familiarity with sustainability or carbon certification programs (e.g. Gold Standard, Verra)
