‘There are so many paths in the ag sector; just try a few and see what suits you’

Job: After graduating in July 2015, I was lucky enough to get a full-time position within the marketing department at Harbro and this has led to my career in agricultural marketing and communications.

I joined the team at Jane Craigie Marketing in March 2018 and have gained so much knowledge and experience.

I never saw myself having a career in marketing and communications, especially with English being the worst subject at school for me.

But when you are passionate about something, it makes it easier to share a story – and agriculture is what I am passionate about.

Don’t get me wrong, if I could work outside full-time on the farm, I would do it in a heartbeat, but working with the fantastic team at Jane Craigie Marketing gives me the best of both worlds.

I can still spend my spare time outside, but each day my knowledge for the industry increases with the variety of work we do. From social media to press days, I have done it all.

Courses: I have also had the opportunity to complete several courses and training days, including the British Guild of Agriculture’s John Deere Award.

There are so many paths you can go down in the agricultural sector. It is just about going out there, trying a few and seeing what suits you best.
