This is a whole-of-business general management position. You'll carry full responsibility for farm operations, financial performance, team leadership, infrastructure, and compliance across all three properties. You report directly to the CEO, and you manage the Farm Operations Manager, Farm Overseer, and station hands. The CEO's expectation is simple: the business should operate at full capability without needing to be pulled into day-to-day operational or financial decisions. You are the decision-maker on the ground. You'll also be the link between the vision and the reality.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

- Own the full farm and business budget - prepare, manage, and report monthly to the CEO

- Provide strategic oversight of all livestock enterprises - cattle, Merino, and terminal sheep

- Lead the graze plan - work with the Operations Manager on grass budgeting, seasonal priorities, and regenerative pasture outcomes

- Lead, develop, and performance-manage all direct reports

- Oversee all farm infrastructure, maintenance schedules, and capital planning

- Maintain complete WHS, biosecurity, and compliance standards across the business

- Manage key external relationships - agronomists, contractors, suppliers, and advisors

- Deliver a explicit monthly Business Performance Report to the CEO by the 10th of each month

THE KIND OF PERSON WE'RE HIRING

We're looking for someone who owns their work completely - when things go well and when they don't. You'll need to be as comfortable reading a P&L; as you are reading a paddock. This role suits someone who is:





- Accountable - the CEO should never be surprised

- Commercially sharp - you see the numbers behind the decisions

- A developer of people - your team improves because of how you lead them

- Steady under pressure - you don't pass the problem up or down

- Deeply aligned with regenerative values - not just as a practice, but as a personal conviction

- Proficient with AI - you use tools like Claude or ChatGPT as part of how you work, not as a novelty

- Honest about what you don't know - and active about closing the gap

WHAT WE OFFER

- Award-free senior leadership package - salary negotiated based on experience and qualifications

- Performance-based bonus linked to business KPIs

- On-site accommodation and vehicle use available

- A property that practises what it preaches on regenerative and biodynamic agriculture

- Real authority and a genuine seat at the table

- Support from a hands-on CEO who is invested in the business succeeding

HOW TO APPLY — TWO QUESTIONS REQUIRED

Email us a short note - not a formal cover letter - answering two questions:

1. Tell us about a time at work when something went significantly wrong under your watch. What happened, what was your role in it, and what did you do?

2. Walk us through how you'd approach your first 90 days in a business you'd just taken operational leadership of - what would you do first, and why?

Attach your resume. Applications that don't answer both questions won't be reviewed.
