They're turning traditional farming on its head, using cutting-edge R&D, natural solutions, and some serious innovation to grow a novel crop with massive environmental benefits. This isn't a start-up in the risky sense; they've been testing this system for years in greenhouses, proving that it works. But now it's time to scale. That's where you come in. The Role This isn't your classic clipboard Project Manager role. You'll be right at the heart of a growing operation, quite literally. Working closely with growers, scientists and project partners, your job is to get this unusual crop out of the glasshouse and thriving in the field.
