How to Apply

Do you want to work for an organisation that makes a lasting different for farmers in Wales?

Do you have what it takes to join one of the leading organisations representing Welsh and British farming and food production? Do you want to get experience of working in a high-profile organisation which is rarely out of the news?

NFU Cymru is the leading agricultural organisation in Wales, representing farmers and growers and championing Welsh food and farming. We work tirelessly to influence policy, engage stakeholders, and promote the interests of our members across Wales and beyond.

Purpose of the role & how you will contribute:

This NFU Cymru graduate programme offers a unique opportunity to gain experience in both policy development and communications. Over two years, you’ll work on projects that shape Welsh agriculture, from political lobbying and stakeholder engagement to delivering impactful communications campaigns.

You’ll support policy research, draft responses to Welsh Government consultations, and help create compelling content for digital and print channels. You’ll also assist with events and member engagement activities, gaining insight into one of Wales’ most important industries.

Join us and you’ll enjoy a wide variety of work in a collaborative atmosphere, with opportunities to connect with people across the organisation and beyond. All in an open, inclusive environment, where we all pull together to support our members.

In addition to working with this high impact in-house team, you will gain valuable experience working in one of the most important industries in the country – farming, which supplies the raw ingredients for Wales’ largest manufacturing sector, Welsh food and drink. You will gain an understanding of NFU Cymru, the agriculture and horticulture industries and the issues facing NFU Cymru members, in a comprehensive and purpose-built programme which includes working across our Policy and Communications teams.
