Vacant job

Växa helps agricultural businesses develop their operations through advisory services in feed, animal welfare, production economics, and management. We are now looking for a Production Advisor based on Öland. This is a unique opportunity to work with dedicated colleagues at one of Sweden's most exciting companies.

About the role

As a Production Advisor, you will actively work with the development of agricultural businesses involved in milk and meat production. Växa's mission is to provide advisory services within feed, production economics, animal welfare, and management.

The role primarily involves advising our customers on-site, particularly dairy farms. You will be active in development and support at the customer site regarding feeding, feed planning, production economics, logistics, grazing, milk quality, technology, and animal welfare. You will also work on shaping the sustainable agriculture of the future.

Other duties may include conducting courses for farmers, managing and participating in various development projects, and working within Greppa Näringen and other commissioned assignments from entities such as the County Administrative Board.

Together with Växa's other staff, such as livestock technicians, breeding advisors, animal health veterinarians, business advisors, construction and crop advisors, we form teams around our customers to develop their businesses.

• Worked as an advisor and/or salesperson in the industry
• Knowledge of milk and beef production
• Good knowledge of feed

We place great emphasis on your personal drive and are looking for people with great commitment and the ability to meet people.

The work is highly autonomous where you actively plan your customer visits. As a person, you are open and receptive with a clear business and customer focus. You are good at building relationships and enjoy collaborating in teams.
