Born and bred on an Exmoor Hill farm, new AMC Sales Director,
Lee Baker, is no stranger to life on the land. He knows that
farming is unlike any other business because it combines the
home and family life with the workplace. It is, he says, a tough
industry where the farmer must be self-reliant, yet this is also
why it is incredibly satisfying. Bringing that experience and
understanding to farmers and agricultural business is a real
motivator for me in my new role, he says.
After joining Lloyds Bank aged 15, Lee moved up the ranks and
eventually joined the Banks Agriculture team in 2009. Joining
AMC is a natural progression of that specialisation. After 34 years
with Lloyds Bank, Im excited at the challenge of joining AMC and
relishing the opportunity to support the future of farming, he says.
Andrew Naylor, Managing Director, AMC, adds: Having someone
with Lees background and experience at a time when farmers
are facing high levels of uncertainty, offers added reassurance
to our customers. Lees empathy for the challenges farmers face
and enthusiasm for supporting new opportunities makes him an
ideal addition to the team.
