The National Farmers’ Union (NFU) is the biggest farming organisation in the UK. We’re proud to make a difference for all our members, by shaping attitudes towards British farming and leading the charge on a range of major issues, from climate change and food standards to rural crime and broadband rollout.

WHO WE ARE

Every day, we’re the voice of around 47,000 British farmers and growers who produce food, making sure their concerns are heard at the heart of government both online and locally. This means developing strong relationships with everyone from NFU colleagues to government ministers. So, as well as having a high profile in both the media and Westminster, we work with and support local members through a network of regional and county offices across England and Wales.
We are the face of the NFU to local members, our focus is to understand their day-to-day concerns and influence the local and national agendas on their behalf. It’s about developing strong working relationships with everyone from the members themselves to local councils, constituency MPs and national NFU teams.

This is an exciting new role supporting the NFU South regional team. This role plays a crucial part in providing administrative support services to the regional team. The role is varied and ranges from booking meetings, supporting the arrangements for member engagement events, dealing with queries through to supporting regional social media activity by drafting and creating social media posts and responses.
The role is responsible for co-ordinating and processing member communications, using and maintaining the NFU’s CRM system, supporting internal and external meetings and events by taking minutes and ensuring that events are arranged and serviced effectively. This role also covers the Taunton Hub administration such as stocktakes and printing.
