Are you an experienced fertiliser trader looking for a role with real commercial depth, not just buying and selling?

This is an opportunity to step into a senior fertiliser position within a well-established agricultural business that manufactures its own fertiliser, operates dockside production at Southampton, and works with exclusive, differentiated products in the UK market.

Bartholomews are looking for a fertiliser professional who knows the market inside out and wants to play a key role in shaping purchasing, pricing and product strategy.

The Role

•  Take a senior, hands-on position at the centre of a fertiliser business that manufactures its own product and operates dockside at Southampton
•  Buy and trade fertiliser products, using your market knowledge to make smart commercial decisions and spot opportunities
•  Work closely with production and operations to ensure the right product is in the right place at the right time
•  Play a key role in shaping pricing, margins and the commercial direction of the fertiliser range
•  Be involved with interesting, differentiated products, including exclusive lines not available elsewhere in the market
•  Have real influence within the business, working directly with senior leadership rather than sitting behind a trading desk

What They’re Looking For

•  Current, hands-on experience working in fertiliser trading or fertiliser procurement
•  Strong understanding of fertiliser markets, pricing and supply dynamics
•  Commercially minded, with the confidence to contribute at senior level
•  Comfortable working closely with operations and production teams
•  A professional outlook that aligns with a values-led, long-term business

What’s On Offer

•  Competitive salary dependent on experience
•  A senior, influential fertiliser role
•  Exposure to manufacturing, dockside operations and exclusive products
•  Long-term opportunity within a stable, well-resourced agribusiness
•  Genuine scope to shape how the fertiliser function operates commercially
