Seasonal Farm Team Member

Department: Farm
Closing date: Friday 10th February 2023

Work with us at Riverford, and join a thriving employee-owned business

  • Be part of a friendly, engaging and committed Farm team.
  • Lots of opportunities to learn, grow, and progress in your career.
  • We’ll give you an abundance of free organic fruit and veg, an annual tax-free co-owner bonus, and a bounty of benefits

More than just a veg box….

Riverford are mad about organic veg. It’s at the core of everything we do. We love to grow it, pack it into boxes, and deliver it to around 70,000 homes across the UK every week.

This takes loads of brilliant people – and working here makes you a ‘co-owner’, since Riverford is employee owned. Success means much more than just profits; we want this to be a place people enjoy coming to work, and a business our co-owners feel proud of!

In 2021, we were delighted to be awarded two-star Best Companies accreditation, recognising Riverford as an ‘outstanding’ place to work.

What you’ll be doing…

The next few months is a busy time on the farm at Riverford. If you love working in the great outdoors (come rain or shine), in polytunnels, cultivating plants or and enjoy working as part of a team then you could join us for the next few months harvesting our organic veg.

You’ll get the opportunity to harvest and cultivate different crops, as well as getting involved with moving crop covers, planting, weeding, and hoeing. Previous experience of farm work would be great, but otherwise we are looking for a can-do, positive attitude and a resilience for doing manual work outdoors or in the tunnels.

Skills & Experience…

  • Previous harvesting work desirable
  • Able to cope with the physical demands of outdoor and polytunnel manual work
  • Manual handling experience is desirable. You will be required to lift and manoeuvre crates of produce for this role.

What are the hours? 39 hours a week, working 5 days out of 7 with regular opportunities to pick up overtime. 7am -3pm is a typical day in March, however an earlier start time of 5/6am is required in the summer

What are we paying? £10.02 per hour

Fixed Term Contract until September

Location Based at Wash Farm, Buckfastleigh, Devon, TQ11 0JU

Co-owner benefits

Riverford is a beautiful place to work, with lots of great people – and other perks too. Some of our benefits include: 33 days holiday pro rata (including bank holidays), generous company pension scheme, annual profit share (10% of all our profits are split equally between all co-owners), time and half on bank holidays and when working over 39 hours per week, 2 volunteer days a year, free organic grade out fruit and veg and free parking.
