Estate Manager

A unique opportunity has arisen for an experienced and commercially-minded Estate Manager to take responsibility for the day-to-day running of a 600-acre working farm near Maldon, which forms part of a private charitable foundation.

This is a diverse, hands-on role combining operational estate management with administrative and financial oversight, property responsibilities, and strategic input. The successful candidate will be comfortable working autonomously, with broad experience across both agricultural and commercial sectors.

The role will require flexibility but will also be flexible with the job aiming to be around 3 days per week. Salay will be negotiable for the right candidate.

Key areas of responsibility include:

• Managing the operational and strategic aspects of a working farm
• Overseeing a portfolio of commercial properties on the estate
• Handling farm and charity admin including, banking, and payment schedules
• Acting as a charity secretary
• Liaising with investment managers and identifying development opportunities
• Managing land use, leases, and wider estate planning
• Being able to get stuck in and help out around the farm as needed

You'll report directly to the Board of Trustees and play a key role in ensuring the estate continues to support the charitable objectives of the foundation.

We are looking for someone with farming or agricultural experience who has knowledge of the local area who will be excited to take on this unique challenge where no two days will be the same!
