Setting steels like that is a real pita - hard enough with afew of you! ! Can only think that an easier way is to rag/pad them onto a mini foundation first and then flood them after with conc.

Last King post wall I set out was 2/3 below ground and 1/3 out of the ground retaining a sloping bank around a new build college.
600mm auger for 203s if I remember correct at 2m centres.
Had a beam laid out, set the the face line of the wall then tacked the king posts on prior to concrete.
After we'd poured just need to weld on the angles in the webs to hold the start of the panel.
Have you considered legato blocks?

Haven’t got the option of adding returns/peirs for concrete Lego blocks. Sounds like I need to be digging bigger holes from what others have done. It’s agri spec though so as long as it doesn’t fall over

Dress up as a 'Lady' and say you were very stressed at the time.
Hopefully it'll be lycra clad

I had a similar slope and used concrete blocks with gravel backfill and a drain pipe. Worked great as long as you compact each layer properly and don’t skip the drainage.
