About the role
This interview covers the finance leadership behind farms, processors and other agricultural businesses.

How to prepare

- Prepare an agricultural investment decision where you tested downside scenarios.
- Review how inventory, receivables, supplier terms and harvest timing drive working capital.
- Choose an example of improving financial controls across more than one site.
- Practise explaining a variance to an operations leader in plain language.
Common mistakes
- Using a standard annual budget without reflecting production and sales cycles.
- Presenting precise forecasts without discussing uncertain assumptions.
