  Provide leadership and direction for the Organic Dairy Hub. Drive the strategic direction of the business, leading a great team, supporting shareholders and growing our brands and purpose, domestically and internationally. Delivering year-on-year improvements to Milk Price for farmer shareholders. A steady growth strategy was mandated by our Board of Directors, rather than price volatility and the uncertainty seen by our farmers in the past from other organic processors. We are living this growth strategy every day. Oversaw successful launches of our consumer brand Ours Truly™ and our quality, traceability, and provenance mark A3™. Created new domestic and offshore partnerships, and building a strong customer base. Love managing a team who do great things: > Operations team looking after our milk supply, handling logistics, helping farmers growth their businesses, and developing world class standards in Regeneration and Grass Fed > Innovative project plans, with great agility and sound financial planning > The whole team, regardless of position or title, having input in the direction of our business > Achievements in New Product Development: -->Having our milk available in a bottle of friends, family and fans sounds like such a simple thing, but this has been such a great achievement for our farmers, who are proud to have Ours Truly™ A3™ milk available to the world. -->Developing great milk powder products: beautiful A2 Organic Whole Milk and Skim Milk, clever formulated powders and infant powders naturally rich in nutrients needing very few inputs, and organic A2 Lactose Free WMP & SMP - Innovative powder products hitting specific market needs. But above all else, uphold the very special culture and live the all-important values of our Co-operative. ---Organic A3™-------Ours Truly™---------ODH®----- Show less
