My main responsibilities in this role were optimization of supply chain and systems processes to better serve our farmer members. I am also actively assisting in M&A activities as well as business development in the Canadian market.

Southern Alberta

I was the first AE in the territory and was tasked with building a viable business in the Southern Alberta market. After less than a year on the job FBN had roughly 500,000 acres of members in the territory to transition to my successor.

Crossfield, Alberta, Canada

As the Branch Manager of CPS Crossfield I was responsible for the P&L of the location. In this role, I managed a sales team, an operations team, a customer service representative and all seasonal staff.I made necessary changes to the business to ensure long term profitability and make sure that customers received a high level of service. In addition, I made sure safety remained the top priority to everyone who worked at CPS Crossfield.

As the Regional Account manager I spent more than half my bandwidth managing the fertilizer portfolio. I created a more accurate positioning statement which is helping our team be more proactive to the very dynamic fertilizer markets. Working closely with the General Manager and Marketing Manager, I also took on many ad hoc tasks pertaining to most business units at CPS. In addition, I was managing the Ag Equipment portfolio for the region.

My time in the MIT program is surely going to be of great value as I progress in my career.
