The ideal candidate has experience managing all procedures and personnel during harvest and post-harvest processing of cannabis flowers in a commercial setting. They must be familiar with large volume curing techniques, high quality precision trimming, and Metrc compliance. Knowledge of WPFF preparation and lean manufacturing principles desired. The Harvest Manager will report to the Director of Cultivation for all tasks.

The Harvest Manager will need to be agile in delegation, as there are time constraints from when a plant is harvested to completion of processing for manufacturing. This position requires good leadership and interpersonal skills, critical thinking, and a sense of urgency in a rapidly changing environment.

The Harvest Manager will be required to learn different cultivars/strains, and how to trim/cure each cultivar based on its individual characteristics. A large portion of the Harvest Manager's role will rely on smell, feel, and experience to determine if product is at the ideal time to be packaged.

Responsibilities include:

• Delegation of all flower processing related tasks (harvest, buckdown, trimming, WPFF prep etc.) to be completed on time outlined in the annual cultivation schedule
• Ensuring METRC compliance; using the provided excel sheets to track corresponding METRC plant tags during and after harvest, generating METRC package tags post-processing
• Daily data entry and recording of all plant material weights into corresponding harvest cycle spreadsheets
• Training employees to perform all wet plant (WPFF) and dry flower processing tasks according to the SOP
• Oversight of all flower processing related tasks, making sure employees are following SOPs, and issuing corrective action when employees do not follow SOPs
• Management of both full-time and temporary employees: scheduling workflow, track working hours, inputting timesheets, ensuring meal/rest break compliance, and coordinating staffing needs with the Director of Cultivation and third party staffing companies
• Curing of all product post-processing; using the timeframes outlined in the SOP in conjunction with sensory judgement to determine when a batch is ready for packaging
• Coordinate with the manufacturing (extraction) and packaging departments to forecast time and volume of product ready for extraction and dry flower packaging.
• Compile KPIs and daily/weekly productivity reporting
• Perform labor projections and coordinate with temp staffing agencies
• Track and order department-wide consumables and inventory
• Any other task assigned by the Director of Cultivation

Qualifications:

• Leadership experience managing a diverse team of 50 or more people
• Greater than 1 year experience in a management role in a licensed commercial cannabis facility
• Adept in Excel/Google Sheets, METRC, and G-Suite software
