New Opening!!
Turnrow Production & Logistics Manager
JOB DESCRIPTION
Turnrow Appalachian Farm Collective, an initiative of Sprouting Farms Corp and their partners, is a team of farmers, businesses, organizations, and nonprofits across West Virginia that work together to market, sell, and distribute local products for customers across the region. Our producers, drivers, sales, and processing team are passionate about local foods and providing quality fresh produce to our community. Our focus is "seed to box," working with producers and buyers to bridge the necessary gap to fundamentally changing our approach to accessing local food. Turnrow formed the largest food collective in West Virginia by combining several food hubs and co-ops under one “roof”. We’re already growing to serve the greater region by working in surrounding states like Kentucky, Ohio, and Virginia. We are working with approximately 75-100 farmers throughout the region to ensure that fresh, quality food is distributed quickly and efficiently to buyers that value the grit, dedication and craft that working in these mountains and valleys have required of our farmers for generations. The Production and Logistics Manager will lead the Production and Logistics Program at Turnrow. This position will work closely with farmers throughout West Virginia and surrounding states to help them plan and source their operations and access new marketing opportunities within Turnrow. Additionally, this position will work with Turnrow logistic partners to plan, organize, and execute weekly aggregation and distribution tasks.
This is the perfect job for a person who has good organizational skills, can use technology (in-house software) to communicate and execute weekly (and repetitive) actions across a wide team, and ensure that plans and protocols are being achieved.
