To transform Cambodia’s agricultural cooperatives into a unified, commercially viable, and globally competitive agribusiness network that drives national rural prosperity through structural discipline and innovation.

- Coordinate with production managers to establish harvesting schedules based on crop maturity, market demand, and product quality requirements.
- Supervise post-harvest operations, including product collection, sorting, grading, cleaning, packaging, and storage.
- Establish product quality standards, grading criteria, and inspection procedures according to buyer and market specifications.
- Monitor product quality, post-harvest losses, handling efficiency, and storage conditions to maintain freshness and shelf life.
- Develop and implement post-harvest SOPs, hygiene procedures, traceability systems, and food safety requirements.
- Coordinate with relevant teams to ensure proper packaging, storage, and preparation of products for transportation and market delivery.

- Monitor and analyze product rejection rates, post-harvest losses, and operational efficiency to identify areas for improvement.
- Maintain accurate records of harvested quantities, grading results, packaging, product losses, and dispatch information.
- Prepare regular post-harvest performance and quality reports and recommend corrective actions to the Farm Manager.
- Bachelor's Degree in Agronomy, Horticulture, Post-Harvest Technology, Food Science, or a related field.
- Post-harvest management, fresh produce handling, or quality control for 2 to 3 years as a minimum
- Strong knowledge of vegetable harvesting, grading, packaging, storage, and quality management.
- Good understanding of GAP, food safety, hygiene standards, and product traceability.
- Ability to supervise post-harvest operations, minimize product losses, and maintain quality standards.
