Introducing our new Non-Executive Director, Jacqui Green

Jacqui has been involved in fresh food since she graduated in 1995. She studied Law, French and Spanish and found that, unexpectedly, languages and fresh produce seemed like a fit. Until last year she was employed as CEO of Berry Gardens Ltd, one of the largest grower owned fresh produce marketing companies and retail suppliers, and the largest soft bruit/berry company in the UK (turnover 2019 approx. £320m). 

Jacqui has spoken previously on responding to consumer preference, sustainable futures, talent development and supply chain efficiency. She has also held many positions on Trade Boards, Retailer committees, a Charity Board and worked with Government working groups. She is passionate about personal development and, as well as her consulting and Non-Executive roles, also works as a Mentor and is a qualified Transformational Coach. 

The interview panels were very impressed with her knowledge, experience and positive outlook and believe that she has multiple transferable skills, which will be an asset to our business. She will complete a Camgrain induction day during Harvest and will be in attendance at the next Board meeting. She will also join our Appointments and Remuneration Committee. She is very keen to join the team and assist in the ongoing evolution of our Society.
