About This Role
This is a performance-tracking role embedded in a large-scale integrated farming operation, where you would translate production targets into measurable plans and flag deviations before they become costly. ELFORA is arguably Ethiopia's most prominent agro-industrial player, so the planning function here feeds directly into decisions about livestock cycles, processing volumes, and export commitments. It suits someone early in their career who is comfortable with data and wants exposure to how a vertically integrated agribusiness actually runs. Expect the work to sit at the intersection of the farm's daily realities and head-office reporting expectations.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The junior-level framing with a first degree in economics tells you the employer is hiring for analytical capability and trainability rather than a long track record. They want someone who can build and maintain planning documents, reconcile figures across departments, and communicate findings clearly — not someone who needs to be told what to measure. The agricultural setting implies you will need to tolerate ambiguity, since farm-level data is rarely as clean as office records. The profile being sought is a detail-oriented generalist who can grow into the role rather than a specialist arriving with a fixed playbook.
How to Approach This Application
Your CV should lead with any experience you have compiling reports, tracking budgets, or supporting planning cycles — even from internships or university projects — because this role is fundamentally about producing reliable numbers for decision-makers. If you have worked in or near agriculture, primary production, or manufacturing, make that explicit; it signals you understand why a missed calving target or feed-cost overrun matters. Since the position is based at a rural integrated farm rather than a city office, addressing your willingness to work on-site in the Amhara region could set you apart from candidates who apply broadly without reading the location carefully.
Who This Role Suits
Best suited to an early-career economics or business graduate who is genuinely willing to live and work at a farm site and sees this as a route into agribusiness management. Competition is likely moderate — the remote location filters out many applicants, but ELFORA's reputation will still attract strong candidates from across the country.
