Business Development Executive (Bay Of Plenty)

About the role

Farmers with Halter are writing the playbook for a new production system, paving a new way of managing their land and animals, and in doing so unlocking more productive and sustainable uses of the world's agricultural land.

Halter helps farmers grow more grass and graze their land more efficiently while driving mating performance and monitoring every cow 24 / 7.

Farmers no longer need to get up at 4am to get the cows in, put up a fence, measure pasture or detect heats – they do all of this automatically and proactively through the Halter App.

Farmers can schedule their mobs to meet them at the dairy for milking, run as many mobs as they want, and allocate precisely the right amount of feed.

Welcome to farming with Halter!

This role can be based anywhere in the Bay of Plenty region.

Travel is required to meet with farmers daily.
