Job Description
Our Client:
A leading Saudi-based agri-processing business with a strong footprint across milling and animal feed, operating at scale and playing a key role in the Kingdom’s food security ecosystem. The business is now looking to strengthen its feed vertical as a core growth engine, with a sharper focus on commercial excellence, product differentiation, and customer-led value creation.
Your Role:
You will lead the animal feed business as a fully accountable vertical, owning strategy, performance, and growth. This is a techno-commercial leadership role where success comes from balancing nutrition credibility, customer outcomes, and commercial discipline.
You will shape how the business competes in the market — from segment focus and product positioning to pricing and channel strategy — while ensuring alignment with operations, quality, and regulatory frameworks. This role is about building a stronger, more differentiated feed business, not just maintaining volumes.
Responsibilities:
- Own and deliver the overall performance of the feed business, including revenue growth, margin quality, and market positioning
- Define and execute the medium-term strategy across key customer segments such as poultry, ruminant, and livestock producers
- Develop differentiated offerings based on feed performance, productivity, and customer economics
- Lead commercial levers including pricing, product mix, and demand planning in alignment with supply chain and manufacturing
- Build and manage relationships with key customers, distributors, and large farm operators
- Ensure alignment with quality and regulatory standards, including compliance with local feed and safety requirements
- Identify opportunities for innovation in formulations, services, and value-added solutions
- Build and lead a technical-commercial team across sales, key accounts, and field support
- Track market dynamics including raw material trends, competitor activity, and evolving customer needs
Must Have:
- 12–18+ years of experience in animal feed, animal nutrition, agribusiness, or related sectors
- Proven ownership of a business unit, category, or regional P&L
- Strong technical grounding in feed, livestock performance, or nutrition-led products
- Experience working with farms, distributors, and large commercial customers
- Exposure to Saudi Arabia or GCC markets is strongly preferred
- Ability to operate at the intersection of technical expertise and commercial leadership
