The Company

The company is a well-respected, vertically-integrated market leader with heavy focus toward B2B and B2C consumer goods.

The Position

Located in Myanmar, whilst reporting directly to the Group CEO, the appointed individual will provide strategic and operational expertise to create value across key agri commodities, such as rice, beans, pulses, oils and similar, whilst ensuring initiatives engage and transform trading, logistics, distribution and manufacturing segments of the business. The position will create and champion the vision whilst steering the establishment and implementation of each key operational function whilst building stakeholder engagement with farmers, suppliers and distributors as potential partners.

Strong exposure to commodities supply chain optimisation, farming practices and collaborative partnerships with Government bodies, NGOs and private sector suppliers will be advantageous. Whilst Burmese nationals (local/repatriate) may be preferred, interested candidates offering a wealth of relevant experience within SE Asia will also be considered.
