About Agreena


Agreena is an exciting, dynamic and purpose-oriented organisation united in a mission to drive impact for farmers and the climate.

While we're rooted in agriculture, finance and technology, our team of experts range from soil carbon scientists and software developers to market strategists and regulatory affairs experts.

More than 30 nationalities are gathered under the common Agreena flag - either working from our headquarters in Copenhagen or remotely across Europe.

Agreena provides solutions that drive both environmental and financial sustainability.

Within the last year alone, we have helped farmers across 13 countries in their conversion journey to regenerative farming practices.

Our company offers a supportive and positive work environment with opportunities for learning, leading and growth no matter where you are in your professional journey.

And this is where you come in:
We are looking for an in-house statistician to assist our Program and Data Science teams.

Across both teams we are looking to better understand and explain our data in order to bolster our scientific rigour.

The Statistician will sit between both teams and be confident working with different types of messy, imbalanced data (remote sensing imagery, experimental).

Equally the Statistician will have a good understanding of statistical modelling and bring a fresh perspective to our machine learning and process-based approaches.

Thus, the statistician will be a strong communicator capable of translating complex analysis into simplified insights.


How will you make an impact:

  • Communicating and visualising key insights;
  • Estimating uncertainty and error propagation in our models;
  • Designing sampling strategies for our data collection campaigns;
  • Evaluating the quality and quantity of our data.

Who we're looking for:

  • 2 5 years of experience working in a relevant field, with experience in the following:
  • Statistical and data-sampling techniques (regression, imputation, random forest, Monte Carlo); _
  • Temporal and spatial data; _
  • Python and/or R; _
  • Handling and processing messy/imbalanced data;_
  • Strong theoretical background in Bayesian Statistics;
  • Comfortable communicating ideas to audiences with a range of technical expertise.

Bonus points if you have:


  • PhD or advanced degree in one of the relevant Science fields mentioned above;
  • Knowledge or experience working with data from crop models, ML architectures, and satellite remote sensing;
  • A baseline understanding of greenhouse gas accounting frameworks and methodologies;
  • A good understanding in ecosystem service markets.

What's in it for you:


  • A unique opportunity to join and help shape a fastgrowing tech scale up with the determination and ambitious mission to reverse climate change;
  • A truly global environment where you can collaborate and socialise with diverse and passionate colleagues;
  • Competitive compensation package and holidays;
  • Centrally located modern office in London and the option to work from home a couple days a week;
  • Team events throughout the year;
  • An exciting purposeled culture and mission;
  • Open communication and supportive feedback culture.
