•    Passion for the farm sector, ideally with practical on-farm experience.

•    Skilled in quantitative and qualitative analysis, modelling, and data visualisation (Excel, R, Power BI or similar). 

•    Tertiary qualification in farm management, economics, trade policy, or related fields. 

•    Minimum 5 years'    experience as an analyst, preferably with some agricultural sector experience. 

•    Excellent communication skills and ability to translate data into compelling insights
 
This role is ideally based in our Wellington office, however may be based in one of our other New Zealand offices for the right candidate. You will be required to travel to represent Beef + Lamb New Zealand and participate in regional and national collaborative processes or similar forums.

What we offer
This career move builds your expertise in a field that contributes to one of New Zealand's most important export industries, and the New Zealand economy.
