Executive Office Members

Karen Mobbs

Executive Assistant to CEO

I am a chocolate-loving Executive Assistant with more years of experience that I would care to admit.

I joined AF in 2008, having previously been employed at Clays Ltd for 14 years.  Other posts include Shell UK Exploration & Production, Anglian Home Improvements, First Buses and the NHS (child psychiatry and speech therapy).

David Horton-Fawkes

Chief Executive

It is my privilege to be Chief Executive of AF and my overriding priority is to ensure AF delivers an experience which Members rate as brilliant at every point in the supply-chain, from ordering to invoicing.

I started my career in the gruelling world of hospitality and food service but I come to AF after several years managing rural estates, where I have been responsible for a variety of agricultural businesses including arable, vegetable and livestock operations.  Although I do not pretend to be a farmer (nor a land agent) I have worked with large and small farms in Hertfordshire, Dorset and Norfolk and it has been my privilege to learn from some exceptional farmers and farming families.
