Details of the offer

About the Team The Coastal and Central Harvest teams are one of the most dynamic teams at Komaza and are expected to grow dramatically over the next few years - hiring dozens of staff, investing in mechanization, adding new teams in Kwale county, and multiple new teams to our Central Kenya program to support a significant infrastructure investment there. In this role, you will spearhead the implementation of training programs across the Harvest teams, and be responsible for the high standards of performance and safety across all teams. We are investing in building and developing high standards across the Harvest Team in preparation for scale, and our vision is to develop training programs and standards that are best in class across African and global forestry.

The Harvest Department leverages data, mobile technology, training, and user-centred business systems to make Komaza the future of African forestry. We are equally comfortable whiteboarding new solutions to complex business problems, digging into Excel, SurveyCTO, Avenza Maps and GIS, and getting our boots muddy talking to farmers.

The Harvest Technical & Safety Manager is a mid-level management role that is the primary support to the Harvest Director. The Harvest Technical & Safety Manager will be the standard-bearer of quality, ensuring that there is regular safety monitoring, training and reporting to senior management.

Harvest Risk Assessment Monitoring:

Support the Harvest Director and Komaza Design Team to develop and implement a risk matrix against all farms
Ensure that appropriate skill levels are catered for within felling, extraction and haulage teams to handle the requirements of each respective role
Implement tools and process for regular health and safety assessment of all Harvest teams
Ensure appropriate first aid training, standards and protocols are in place across all Regional Business Units

Harvest Inventory Oversight:

Ensure all Harvest teams are equipped with the appropriate equipment for the task at hand
Collaborate with providers to ensure that all Komaza equipment is well maintained & in good operational condition
Manage harvest equipment maintenance and service tools and schedules
Manage and keep a suitable inventory of spare/ replacement parts in stock across all RBUs.
