You will work directly with dairy producers, helping them use farm-management technology to understand their herds better, improve performance, and make informed operational decisions.

• Partner with the sales team during customer meetings, product demonstrations, and pre-sales activities.
• Participate in farm visits, customer training sessions, producer meetings, and industry events.
• Share customer feedback and insights with internal teams.
• Travel approximately 50% across your assigned territory.

What we're looking for

• Minimum 2 years of relevant dairy-farm experience.
• Hands-on knowledge of dairy farming and herd management solutions.
• Experience working directly with dairy farmers or producers.
• Familiarity with herd-management software or dairy-farm technology.
• Comfortable communicating with and training farmers.
• Strong interpersonal and customer-service skills.
• Self-motivated and comfortable working independently in the field.
• Willing and able to travel approximately 50% of the time.
• A degree in Dairy Science, Animal Science, Agriculture, Dairy Nutrition, or a related field or experience is a plus.
• Build on your dairy-farm experience and develop a career in dairy technology.
• Work with dairy producers across the region.
• Help farmers solve real herd-management and operational challenges.
• Gain expertise in advanced farm-management technology.
• Stay closely connected to dairy farming in a broad advisory and customer-facing role.
• Join an international company with an established presence in the dairy industry.

If you understand dairy farming, have hands-on herd-management experience, and are interested in combining that knowledge with technology and customer support, we would be pleased to hear from you.
