COO LEAF Linking Environment and Farming

COO LEAF Linking Environment and Farming
An exciting opportunity to influence sustainable agriculture practices and have a positive impact.

This is more than a COO position. It's a chance to lead a purpose-driven organisation at the intersection of food, farming, and environmental change. You will translate strategy into real-world impact across sustainable agriculture, education, and industry standards.

LEAF (Linking Environment And Farming) is a UK-based charity that promotes environmentally responsible and economically viable farming. Its core mission is to help create a resilient food and farming system by supporting farmers, engaging the food supply chain, and building public understanding of how food is produced.

This is a pivotal leadership role at the heart of LEAF, working alongside the CEO and Board to turn strategy into meaningful delivery. The COO will oversee operations, finance, governance and organisational performance, ensuring the charity runs efficiently, sustainably and with strong commercial discipline.

It's a broad, high-impact role suited to a commercially minded, purpose-driven leader who enjoys balancing strategy with delivery and wants to help shape an organisation making a genuine difference.

The role will require a candidate with high influencing skills and emotional intelligence.
