What are the responsibilities and job description for the Office Manager position at Ernst Grain & Livestock?
Monday - Friday
$18-$25/hour
Join a growing small, family owned business and help us manage the details in feed production and general day to day farm business activities. We are offering this as a full time or part time job depending on the skills of the applicant. This is the first time an office position has been offered here on our farm so we are looking for an applicant to work directly beside our owner and farm manager to identify the best way the job can be done. It will take time to learn the back end of our business so we do not expect all of these responsibilities to be immediately fulfilled. But ultimately, we are looking for an applicant who will be able to do the following:
- Inventory Management - Feed Ingredient Inventory, Mixed Feed Inventory, & Amazon Product Inventory. Ensure that all products in our warehouse are produced, ordered, received, and shipped in a timely manner.
- Order fulfillment - Create loading documents for weekly wholesale orders and delivery routes. Send and track invoices to customers.
- Customer Service - Ensure phone calls, texts, and emails are responded to promptly and all questions are answered. Learn our products to help answer customer questions. Enter any customer orders into the appropriate spreadsheets for production.
- Bookkeeping - Ideally this applicant will have experience in quickbooks and general bookkeeping to keep the finances of our business straight.
- Employee work scheduling - manage the calendar to ensure employees schedules are properly planned.
- Strong computer skills are ideal. Most of our business is managed online through Google Drive and spreadsheets.
- Misc Office tasks - Order supplies, government paperwork, marketing, etc…
Ideally, this applicant has good people skills, enjoys problem solvings, is good with numbers, and pays extreme attention to detail. Currently there is approximately 4 hours of work per day for this position. However, this is a flexible job and it can be somewhat molded around the candidate’s skill sets. A person who is flexible and enjoys a variety of tasks could be hired for a full time position.
For full time employees, we offer 9 paid holidays, paid time off, health insurance, and year end bonuses. Retirement plans will be offered soon.
There is a newly remodeled farm office where the position will be based.
