Responsibilities:
- The Formulation Expert: You will be the "owner" of our nutritional recipes. You’ll work closely with our premix and concentrate suppliers to manage inclusion rates and ensure our feed delivers maximum growth performance.
- The Lead Operator: You will work directly alongside our liaisons and production staff to run the hammer mills, horizontal mixers, and bagging systems. You aren't just supervising; you are part of the team physically producing the feed.
- Precision Mixing: You will personally oversee the addition of micro-ingredients and premixes, ensuring that the scientific formulation is executed accurately on the production floor.
- Raw Material Quality Control: You will physically inspect and test incoming maize, soy, and other ingredients, adjusting the "mix of the day" based on the quality of the raw materials.
- Operational Flow: You will coordinate production schedules and inventory (FIFO), ensuring the mill runs smoothly and stays "investor-ready" through meticulous record-keeping in MS Excel.
Qualifications And Experience:
- Education: A BSc. in Animal Science, Agriculture, or Agricultural Engineering is mandatory. We need someone who understands the "why" behind the nutrition.
- Hands-on Experience: 3+ years in a feed mill. You must be comfortable working in a production environment and have direct experience operating milling and mixing machinery.
- Collaborative Spirit: You enjoy working as part of a crew. You lead by example, showing the team how to maintain high standards of precision during the milling process.
- Analytical Skills: Strong proficiency in Excel to track cost-per-ton, inventory levels, and production data.
