Working at Fairer Fields

Fairer Fields' culture is highly focused. We work under a high-autonomy model, where researchers pursue specific goals and targets without heavy oversight.

Fairer Fields runs coordinated research programs to accelerate agricultural technology. To accomplish this, we set ambitious internal goals for projects, and give staff a high-degree of autonomy to work toward them.

We value a focus on singular goals, maintaining a low-bureaucracy culture, and above all, having the greatest impact possible through our work. People who thrive in being self-directed, and acting with a high degree of agency might do especially well at our organization.

We typically hire staff with three separate skillsets: researchers, especially entomologists and ecologists interested in studying agricultural technologies, programs staff who deliver these technologies in the field, and operations staff to run the infrastructure that supports our work.

Our hiring process

Our hiring process consists of four stages, which we aim to move between relatively rapidly: application, screening, work trial, and reference checks. We aim to transparently provide candidates with details of the full hiring process after they apply.

After you apply for a role, we’ll aim to followup within 10 days to invite you the screening stage, which usually consists of a 30 minute interview, focused on key skills relevant for the role. If advanced, you’d be invited to a one day paid work trial, which consists of interviews and sample work tasks. We’ll also complete a reference check at that time.

We’re currently aiming to move candidates fully through the hiring process in under a month. We typically do not provide feedback for candidates who do not reach the end of our process due to time constraints, but may provide general statistics on the round.
