Head of Cultivation
Full-time, Onsite
Cundinamarca, Colombia

Our client is a licensed Colombian cannabis operator specializing in the cultivation, processing, and development of medical cannabis products. They are seeking a Head of Cultivation to own the day-to-day execution, performance, consistency, and continuous improvement of the cultivation operation, from propagation through harvest.

The Head of Cultivation combines strong plant science and cultivation knowledge with disciplined operational management. This is a hands-on leadership position requiring daily involvement in crop steering, environmental management, irrigation and fertigation, plant health, pest and disease prevention, labor management, production scheduling, data analysis, and quality control. The successful candidate identifies problems before they materially affect yield or quality, develops data-driven corrective actions, and ensures that cultivation teams consistently execute established SOPs, all within the company's GACP framework and chain of authority.





This role requires someone who can operate within a structured, GMP-aligned environment, following established protocols and leadership direction, including guidance from international technical partners, rather than operating independently based on informal growing experience alone. The primary objective of this position is simple: produce healthy, consistent, high-quality crops on schedule while maximizing yield, quality, labor efficiency, facility utilization, and overall profitability.

MUST HAVE 5+ years of experience in agronomic or commercial crop production roles, including cannabis cultivation experience.
MUST HAVE 2+ years of cannabis cultivation experience within a legal, licensed medical cannabis operation.
MUST HAVE demonstrated experience leading cultivation teams.
MUST HAVE advanced knowledge of irrigation, fertigation, and environmental crop management (EC, pH, VPD).
