Senior Consultant - Agri Food Systems H/F > AXA Climate > Joboolo FR :

Our ambition

By 2026, our ambition is to become the reference partner for private actors seeking to adapt agricultural and food value chains — and the territories that support them — to climate, environmental and economic risks.

We aim to be the first call for executive teams when they face strategic decisions to secure their value chains, margins and long-term viability under increasing constraints (climate, water, yields, regulation, costs).

To achieve this, we are strengthening our consulting team with senior consultants able to lead projects end-to-end, build trusted client relationships and grow both business and people.
