Partner - Rural Business

Type: Self-employed

Are you someone who thrives on building relationships, leading a team, and making a meaningful impact in your local community? This is a rare opportunity to take ownership of an established rural business, with the freedom to shape its future and the support of a nationally respected organisation behind you.

You'll be stepping into a business with a loyal client base, a strong local reputation, and the infrastructure to grow. This is more than a job-it's a chance to lead, to build, and to become a trusted figure in your community.

What You'll Be Doing

• Taking full responsibility for the strategic direction and day-to-day running of the business.

• Leading and developing a small, dedicated team to deliver exceptional service.

• Building long-term relationships with clients, including farmers, landowners, and rural business owners.

• Acting as a trusted advisor, helping clients protect what matters most to them.

• Driving business growth through local marketing, networking, and community engagement.

• Managing financial performance, compliance, and operational excellence.

What You'll Bring

• A strong sense of ownership and a desire to build something long-term.

• Proven leadership or business management experience-this could be from agriculture, financial services, retail, or another people-focused sector.

• A natural ability to connect with others and build trust-based relationships.

• Commercial awareness and the confidence to make strategic decisions.

• A genuine interest in rural life and the challenges and opportunities it presents.

• The resilience and motivation to run your own business, with the rewards that come with it.

What's in It for You

• You'll be your own boss, with the freedom to shape the business your way.

• While you'll be self-employed, you'll have access to training, marketing, systems, and a wider network of professionals.

• You'll play a key role in your local community, supporting individuals and businesses with services that matter.

• With no cap on earnings and the ability to build long-term value, the financial potential is significant.

• This is a chance to build a business that reflects your values and leaves a lasting impact.
