Assessor – Agriculture

The green transition of agriculture is in full swing, and there is a strong focus on finding the right solutions. Land redistribution and acquisition of areas play a central role in restructuring agricultural land to create optimal solutions for landowners. Do you want to help create change in the Danish landscape? Then we offer you a key role in an exciting process.

The Unit - Nature & Agricultural Development

There is pressure to select agricultural land by voluntary means, and there is a great need for purchase of properties that can be used as replacement land. To meet this growth and strengthen our capacity, we are now looking for three new colleagues to our team of specialists. The team already possesses extensive plant science knowledge and strong competencies in property trading, and you will become part of a group that supports the extraction process with assessment, dialogue, negotiation and purchase

If you thrive in a job where you are in close dialogue with farmers and landowners in general, and if you enjoy days in the field with the boots on, then this job is absolutely for you. You will have an exciting and varied everyday life with a strong team around you, and with great influence on the planning of your own day.

The team's tasks consist of both assessment and purchase of individual properties and the execution of appraisal proceedings. An appraisal is conducted prior to a land distribution, and consists of a physical inspection and valuation of all the areas affected by the individual withdrawal project. The appraisal is carried out in collaboration with the landowners and an external appraisal expert.

Your primary areas of responsibility

• Carry out appraisal proceedings in land distributions
• Understand appraisal of soil and land
• Sparring and assistance to land distribution for agricultural properties with a view to acquisition
• Collaboration with the Nature Agency on appraisal tasks, planners and property consultants in connection with concrete purchases of agricultural properties and assessment of areas

You will have a day-to-day life where your professionalism, your independence, and your ability to support the task with assessment and valuation of areas and properties are highly valued. You will both work in depth on the task solution in close dialogue with managers and colleagues, and you are expected to contribute with a professional foundation regarding the appraisal task.

You will become part of an engaged and results-oriented team that values professionalism, sparring, and collaboration.

Your workplace: From Tønder to the whole country

Although our administrative base is in Tønder, your projects and tasks take place across the country. This means you will have a high degree of geographic freedom: you will have a home office, and you will largely be able to drive directly from your residence to your task locations.

You must be prepared for substantial travel activity in connection with meetings and collaboration across the country, including at the office in Tønder. Travel to projects is by your own car, and travel allowance is provided in accordance with the state's applicable rules and rates.

Who are you?

We imagine that you are flexible, professionally well-founded, and with a great interest in appraisal and valuation.

You have a relevant education as an agricultural economist, agronomist, estate agent, or similar, preferably with a few years of experience with contact to landowners. Good negotiation skills, broad knowledge of plant production, and solid understanding of the factors that influence the valuation of agricultural land are important competencies for the job. You also have good digital skills and the ability to quickly learn new systems. A basic understanding of short-term terms will be an advantage.
