Futures at Fram
As an Industry Partner with Suffolk New College, we are proud to play a role in developing the next generation of skilled workers in our sector. This partnership demonstrates our commitment to supporting education and developing local talent, while helping students build the knowledge and experience needed for their future careers
Our Values
Our values define how we work with our colleagues, members and suppliers, and are a key part of our ongoing success. They set the standards by which individual and team performance are measured and rewarded.
- Partnership
- Ambition
- Service
- Integrity
Employee Wellbeing
We take the wellbeing of our employees extremely seriously. Providing a workplace where our people can be themselves will ensure individuals perform to the best of their ability, and enables them to deliver exceptional service to our members. We are proactive in empowering our teams to prioritise their wellbeing and encourage them to support those around them in doing the same.
Growing Our Own
Some roles within the company are unique and specialised and as such we benefit hugely from ‘growing our own’. There is much satisfaction to be gained in adopting this approach and seeing apprentices and graduates grow into their roles. Their self-achievement and confidence is rewarding to witness, but also encourages the whole team to develop and take responsibility in helping our ‘seeds’ fulfil their goals and ambitions.
Learning and Development
At Fram Farmers, we are committed to providing excellent service to our members. To do this we need great people working with us, and we pride ourselves on finding the right person for the right job. Once we've found them, we're not scared of investing in their development and will support them to gain career-specific training and qualifications. From apprenticeships to FACTS and BASIS qualifications to AAT courses for our finance staff, we know that by investing in the person we will get the best service for our members. And, development doesn't stop in the classroom - we organise several annual company-wide events, from farm walks to barbeques to sports days.
