Job description

About the Farm Carbon Toolkit

The Farm Carbon Toolkit (FCT) is a leading, independent farmer-led enterprise. Our mission is to provide world-leading practical and impact-led solutions to farmers, growers, land managers and their customers, to support the transition to climate-positive and resilient food production systems. We are an employee-owned organisation, guided by four core values: to be collaborative, practical, empathetic, and science-driven.

The Opportunity

As the Carbon Calculator Product Owner, you will lead the strategic development, feature roadmap and user experience of FCT’s flagship Farm Carbon Calculator. Operating at the intersection of software development, agricultural science, and user-centric design, this role ensures the calculator remains the UK’s most trusted, intuitive, and scientifically robust software for measuring whole-farm greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and carbon sequestration. The full job pack for this position can be found on our website here.

About the team and work environment

Throughout our work, we strive to be collaborative, practical, empathetic and science-driven. These core values help build our culture, shape our purpose and guide us in our actions and decisions.

We are also an employee-owned organisation. This means that staff collectively have a stake in the success of FCT, while creating opportunities for employees to have a stronger voice in how we are run.

We draw inspiration from farmers who are showcasing and helping to support a thriving low-carbon farming future that produces healthy, nutritious food for all. Across our projects, we are committed to working with all farmers to support them towards this vision. 

As a small, remote-working organisation, we recognise the challenges, as well as the flexibility this can bring. We come together as a full team, in person, at least three times per year to reflect and discuss our work and plan for the future.

Thank you for your interest in the Farm Carbon Toolkit.
