Farm School Manager

An exciting new opportunity has arisen for a full-time Farm School Manger to join our amazing children’s charity.

Farms for City Children works to ensure children and young people are happy, healthy, resilient and achieving their potential; and to be nature’s champions and to care about where their food comes from – today and tomorrow.

We achieve all this by giving children with limited access to nature the life-changing opportunity to live and work as farmers for a week, deep in the countryside. We have hosted well over 100,000 children on our farms so far, and we believe that these experiences should be a normal part of every childhood.

About the Role

This is a highly rewarding opportunity to make a meaningful impact to the visiting children and contribute to the continued success of Farms for City Children.

The Farm School Manager has overall responsibility for the success of our operations at Wick Court, a small mixed farm of high environmental value, including a large historic house and farm buildings, all nestled in a beautiful and peaceful location close to the River Severn. This is very much a hands-on role, acting as the key host for our visiting schools and groups and leader of a programme which ensures that our visiting children and young people enjoy a purposeful and engaging countryside, food and farming residential stay.
