Finagra ist ein Agrarunternehmen, das profitable Farmen in Schwellenländern aufbaut und betreibt, indem es Kapital, Agronomie, Technologie und lokales Unternehmertum kombiniert. Es finanziert vereinbarte Betriebsmittel, Geräte und Farminfrastruktur, stellt Anbaupläne und digitale Agronomie-Tools bereit und kooperiert mit lokalen Rural Entrepreneur Partners (REPs), die den Betrieb leiten und Gewinne teilen (z. B. 30 % des Nettogewinns). Finagra verbindet zudem die Produktion mit Käufern und verwaltet das Betriebssystem der Farm. Derzeit ist Finagra in Kenia tätig und bereitet die Expansion nach Indien vor.

Beschreibung

• Own end-to-end implementation of the Finagra Agronomy Target Operating Model across all active countries and pilot geographies. • Conduct structured quarterly operational reviews with each Country Agronomy Lead: TOM compliance, headcount adequacy, REP performance, farm onboarding pipeline. • Identify operational deviations at country and cluster/regional level; issue formal corrective requirements with deadlines; escalate non-compliance to the CAO. • Manage all farm-count milestone transitions: validate staffing readiness, role introduction triggers, and structural changes at 5-, 30-, 100-, and 300-farm thresholds. • Ensure FMS onboarding gate compliance - every farm must satisfy all four gate criteria (FMS active, REP certified, SOPs live, farm data complete) before portfolio entry. • Line manage the India Agronomy Lead and Kenya Agronomy Lead - performance direction, resource advocacy, and operational problem-solving. • Set measurable operational KPIs for each Country Lead aligned to TOM expectations: farm onboarding rate, REP compliance score, agronomic calendar execution rate, escalation response time. • Conduct annual performance appraisals; provide developmental feedback and identify succession pipeline for critical country-level roles. • Personally and directly manage all new-country 5-farm pilot operations from Day 1 through to permanent Country Lead appointment - active management, not remote oversight. • Lead recruitment of Country Pilot Agronomists and Field Agronomists for LATAM and SE Asia pilots; validate local agronomic credentials, regulatory knowledge, and farmer relationship competency. • Enforce non-negotiable pilot entry standard: FMS readiness, REP certification, and SOP activation fully completed before the first farm enters the portfolio. • Monitor pilot performance against yield plan, input compliance, and FMS data quality; produce structured pilot evaluation reports at 3-farm and 5-farm milestones. • Recommend - with evidence - transition from pilot to 30-farm structure (cluster/regional design and staffing plan) to the CAO and Global Head of Agronomy Excellence. • Primary Agronomy contact for Finagra Logistics: align agronomic input schedules, delivery windows, and seasonal procurement plans. • Escalate input supply failures and critical material shortages from country operations to Finagra Logistics at portfolio level. • Partner with Finagra TECH on FMS operational requirements; translate field-reported platform inefficiencies into structured product improvement requests. • Ensure all REP engagement terms include Finagra Tech data ownership clauses as mandated by TOM Section 10.3.

🎯 Anforderungen

• M.Sc. in Agronomy, Agriculture, Agricultural Economics, or Operations Management - required. • MBA or postgraduate qualification in agribusiness management is a significant advantage. • B.Sc. Agronomy with 15+ years demonstrated multi-country farm portfolio scaling may be considered in exceptional cases. • Minimum 12 years in agronomy or agribusiness operations, with at least 5 years in a multi-country portfolio management role with direct line management of country or regional teams. • Demonstrable experience designing and enforcing farm onboarding or operational gate frameworks across a geographically dispersed farm network. • Track record of personally managing new-market agricultural operations - building local teams, establishing operational standards, and delivering first-season results - in at least two distinct markets. • Proven ability to integrate cross-functional operations: supply chain, technology platforms, and agronomic execution working in parallel. • Experience in a lean, technology-first agricultural business model where digital platforms carry primary monitoring responsibility. • P&L literacy: experience interpreting farm-level financial performance, input budget variance, and yield-vs-forecast data in operational decision-making. • Operational experience in India, Kenya, East Africa, LATAM, or SE Asia with direct understanding of smallholder or contract farming models. • Fluent English at executive level; working proficiency in Hindi, Swahili, Portuguese, or a SE Asian language is an advantage.

🏖️ Vorteile

• Operational ownership of a global farm portfolio scaling across four high-growth markets. • Direct report line to the CAO - real authority, no bureaucratic intermediary. • The opportunity to shape how Finagra enters and scales in new countries from day one. • Competitive compensation aligned with senior global operations leadership. • Flexible, remote-first working with structured international travel.
