About me

  • International Experience
  • Regional Background

I am the Grower Relationship Manager for Qube Agri, and work to build the services that our business can offer growers for delivery and sale of their grain.

I have always been passionate about agriculture and the bush and have worked in commodity logistics since graduating from Sydney University. My work has taken me to the UK, Switzerland and Kenya as I strive to gain more knowledge and understanding of primary production and the systems and people involved in it. 

I am now settled back in the region I grew up and find great job in being a part of my community, both through work and in sport and music pursuits.

About my role

  • Idealistic
  • Logical
  • Optimistic
  • Resourceful

The role of the Grower Relationship Manager works closely with buyers, growers and receival sites to ensure smooth and efficient delivery and out-turn of grain. This role also also works with road transport providers to schedule grain deliveries to sites.

A key part of this position is working with buyers to get pricing for growers and analysis of domestic and international commodity markets to ensure prices are competitive for growers.

The Grower Relationships Manager generates and assesses quality data of grain onsite to ensure that it meets stringent export specifications, and manages the onsite weighbridge and sampling staff.
