The Opportunity

This is a high-impact leadership role where you’ll own the performance, strategy and continuous improvement of our remote feeding operations.

  • Translating key metrics (SFR, SGR, FCR) into clear insights and actions that improve performance and drive decision making
  • Leading the review and optimisation of feeding strategies to ensure fish are fed to satiation with minimal waste
  • Partnering closely with fish performance and operational stakeholders to ensure alignment, collaboration and timely resolution of any issues
  • Overseeing data integrity, reporting and analysis, turning insights into long-term improvements
  • Supporting feed trials, R&D initiatives and system enhancements
  • Driving cost efficiencies without compromising fish welfare, safety or performance

About you

You’ll bring:

  • Demonstrated experience in feed management and fish performance outcomes
  • Proven ability to lead, coach and develop high-performing teams
  • Strong commercial mindset with the ability to balance performance, cost and welfare outcomes

  • A natural curiosity and drive to challenge, improve and innovate
