Remote Agronomist Jobs

Sales Agronomist

Job Summary

AgXplore—2024 Plant Nutrition Company of the Year—operates across more acres than any plant nutrition provider in the industry, supported by two PFR-proven products and an education-first approach to agronomy.

As part of our continued, intentional growth, we are introducing a Sales Agronomist role designed for top-tier performers who want ownership, accountability, and long-term impact. This position carries real responsibility and real upside, managing a defined territory and influencing agronomic decisions at scale.

This is not a scripted sales role. It is a high-expectation, high-trust opportunity for professionals who consistently deliver results and want to build something meaningful.

The Role

Sales Agronomists at AgXplore are entrusted with significant responsibility.

You will own a defined territory, manage key relationships, and execute sales and agronomic strategies that directly impact performance. Results are visible, expectations are high, and accountability is clear.

This role is best suited for professionals who take pride in producing at a high level, making sound decisions, and standing behind their recommendations. If you have experience building or managing a multi-million-dollar book of business, you will recognize the level of ownership this role requires.

Key Responsibilities

• Own and manage a defined territory with full accountability for performance and growth
• Develop and execute sales, marketing, and technical strategies aligned with business objectives
• Build and maintain long-term relationships with channel partners and growers
• Support and educate retail partners through agronomic insight and product expertise

• Present at grower meetings, field events, and educational sessions
• Develop annual business plans and execute tactical initiatives
• Manage company resources responsibly, including forecasting and budgeting

• Maintain current knowledge of agronomy, products, and industry trends

Responsibilities may evolve as the company continues to scale.
