The job
Lake Victoria Vanilla Farm is a young company and hence, very few procedures are in place. There will therefore be plenty of opportunity to make your mark on the job. It is a prerequisite that you can both take initiatives and that you can follow instructions.
The tasks that you will be in charge of will be:
- Supervise field workers

- Research issues related to the farm
- Set up and perform tests of different methodologies to be evaluated.
- Submit weekly reports
You will refer to Lake Victoria Vanilla’s Director Mette Ravn who will be in TZ about 50% of the time. It is therefore important that you can organise your time, that you work well without supervision and that you can report in a timely manner on progress and challenges.
You are required to live in the region
The ideal candidate
You have a degree in agriculture or similar, and practical experience with running a large-scale farm, as well as setting up and monitoring tests of different methodologies. Knowledge of Swahili is an advantage.
