Management Recruitment
We want our clients to get the best results from their farms and land – and that means having good management. To meet this need we offer help through our management recruitment service.
How we can help you:
We act for clients to recruit talented people across the agribusiness sector: resident land agents, estate managers, administrators, farm managers, leisure/business managers.
Our Expertise:
We cover the complete recruitment process, from the creation of an accurate job specification through to agreeing terms with the selected candidate. This can involve matching the specification with suitable candidates, deciding whether advertising is needed, choosing the media, appraising the applications, interviewing shortlisted candidates, taking up references. After an appointment is made, we offer familiarisation and training, and we review and monitor performance.
Understanding the needs of a modern estate is vital, and we know the special skills needed at every level of management. We cover all aspects of HR and the recruitment process including the following:
- Preparing your specification, if appropriate, with an inspection of the client’s farm or estate
- Design of application form if required
- Advice on remuneration package, including pension
- Short listing candidates from CVs received
- Preliminary interviews (with or without client)
- Final interviews
- Taking up references
- Making formal written offer
- Liaison with client’s solicitors over preparation of contract of employment
- Identifying skill gaps and advising on team structures
