Your mission

At hexafarms, we imagine a future where global agriculture produces significantly more food using fewer resources. Growers utilizing hexafarms achieve a 30% increase in yield using the same resources, with reduced complexities. We see this as the dawn of the Fourth Agricultural Revolution, and we want to lead it globally.

As the Chief of Staff at hexafarms, your mission will be to maintain our current 10x growth trajectory by ensuring our growing family is aligned and our teams are focused on performance.

We’re a rapidly growing startup, and our recent success is a direct result of increased efficiency and productivity experienced by our customers. From day zero, you will have an immediate impact on our productivity by streamlining initiatives, overseeing projects and long term and short term goals, and communicating objectives across departments. The ideal candidate will have proven success in a fast-paced startup environment.
