• Directly supervise and mentor a team of 2–3 greenhouse workers

• Foster a safe, collaborative, and productive working environment
• Coordinate crew schedules to align with harvest windows and operational demands

• Maintain steady, predictable harvest volumes to meet buyer commitments and supply agreements
• Grade, pack, and manage post‑harvest handling to minimize losses and maintain freshness standards
• Liaise with operations management on sales commitments, volume forecasts, and delivery scheduling
• Identify and resolve any supply gaps or crop failures quickly and proactively

• Uphold all USDA National Organic Program (NOP) standards and assist with annual certification audits
• Maintain compliance documentation including spray logs, input records, and traceability files

• Minimum 3–5 years of hands‑on experience in commercial greenhouse vegetable production
• Demonstrated experience managing a team in an agricultural or horticultural setting

• Proven ability to maintain consistent crop yields and meet supply commitments
• Physical ability to perform manual labor: lifting, standing, and working in a greenhouse environment
