Darren Hill
Team Leader, Animal & Plant Health Agency
My name is Darren Hill and I first joined the Ministry of Agriculture Fisheries and Food (MAFF), Defra’s predecessor, in 1995. Since joining I have work in the Central Pay Unit, the Pesticides Safety Directorate and the Plant Health & Seeds Inspectorate. Now, as part of the Animal and Plant Health Agency, I am a team leader in the Centre for International Trade based at Sand Hutton, just outside York, where we facilitate trade in plants, plant material and plant products in line with plant health regulations. I also manage staff both in Sand Hutton and at our Llandrindod Wells office in Wales. My role is very varied and quite demanding at times, and, with the benefit of the Team Leader Apprenticeship, I have developed skills, gained knowledge and increased my confidence.
