Help us prove that regenerative farming works - commercially and for nature. In South Oxfordshire, Earth Trust is a charity that shows how nature and people can thrive together in real, working landscapes. Our farm at Wittenham Clumps covers over 530 hectares of the North Wessex Downs National Landscape, including the 69-hectare Little Wittenham SSSI, 178 hectares of permanent grassland, 200 hectares of arable and more than 25km of hedgerows. With support from the Rothschild Foundation's Strategic Fund, we're accelerating our ambition to become a regional demonstration site for regenerative farming by 2029 - a practical, evidence-based model that farmers and landowners can visit to see how regenerative approaches balance profitability with better outcomes for nature. The Role We're looking for a Regenerative Farming Manager to lead this work on the ground. Reporting to the Director of Land Management, you'll develop and deliver a new livestock model that integrates with our arable system, incorporates woodland grazing and agroforestry, improves soil health and biodiversity - and turns a profit. The job is genuinely varied. One day you might be taking soil samples and topping a pasture; the next, building the business case for a new farm enterprise. You'll work with our graziers and farm contractors, explore new produce enterprises to supply our new café and farm shop, and deliver a knowledge-exchange programme of on-farm workshops, walks and events for farmers across the region. About You You'll bring substantial experience of farm or agricultural work - particularly livestock and grassland management - and you'll be comfortable working with graziers and contractors. Just as importantly, you'll be confident engaging farmers and landowners, organising events, and building the case for change with evidence and numbers. You'll be organised, a clear communicator, able to keep accurate records and deliver a busy programme to deadline and budget. A full driving licence is essential. Qualifications in agriculture or conservation, tractor operations certification, GIS experience and habitat management knowledge are all welcome but not essential. What We Offer Flexible working wherever possible, 25 days' annual leave rising with service, pension scheme, volunteering opportunities, and the chance to shape a nationally visible piece of work from the start. How to Apply Send a CV and covering letter explaining why you're suitable and what attracts you to the role to by 20 August 2026. For an informal conversation, contact Simon Atkinson, Director of Land Management - . We're happy to discuss reasonable adjustments at any stage.
