PGG Wrightson Seeds is part of the global DLF Group, a Denmark-headquartered leader in seed innovation. We support both New Zealand and international markets, spanning every stage of the seed industry from research and development through to supply and on-farm support. Our goal is simple: to help farmers and growers build more profitable and resilient businesses through high-quality proprietary forages that improve feed and animal performance.



About the role:


 


PGG Wrightson Seeds are seeking a knowledgeable and enthusiastic Area Sales Agronomist to join our team.



The Manawatu/Taranaki region is a highly valued territory, backed by an exciting pipeline of innovative products and a strong portfolio of proven performers.

  • Develop and deliver a territory business plan to achieve agreed goals.

  • Position products to best fit farm systems while exploring new opportunities for growth.



  • Work alongside trial agronomists to increase awareness of proprietary products

  • Contribute to the team in the development of strategy, promotional material, storytelling on product and farm systems along with your own skillset providing a source of support and ideas sharing.



Skills & Experience:


 


Applications are welcomed from individuals with a passion for agriculture, strong communication skills, and a commitment to helping farmers succeed. Ideally, candidates will bring:


 



  • A degree in Agronomy or a related field (advantageous but not essential).

  • Experience in sales of forage or agricultural products.

  • Knowledge of New Zealand farm systems and farming practices.

  • Strong problem-solving, analytical, and listening skills.

  • Ability to work independently across a large territory, using technology to enhance sales and service.

  • An understanding of the Manawatū/Taranaki Region and its farming landscape.


 


What We Offer:


 


At PGG Wrightson Seeds, we are committed to creating an environment where everyone can thrive. We value diversity and encourage people of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences to apply. You’ll enjoy:


 



  • A competitive salary aligned to your experience.

  • A supportive and inclusive workplace culture where your wellbeing matters.

  • Income Protection, life and health insurance


 


This is an exciting opportunity to join a respected seed business and grow a career in a role that makes a real difference to farmers and communities.
