About Warc

Our Vision & Mission:

At Warc Africa, we envision a future where Africa nourishes the world while its farmers become the stewards of its fertile soils. Our mission is straightforward: uplift farmers from poverty through regenerative farming practices.

With operations in Ghana, Sierra Leone, and Uganda, we have impacted over 100,000 lives, created thousands of rural jobs, and aim to empower one million farmers to generate hundreds of millions in income while becoming climate heroes.

Our model is already proving transformative: 95% of farmers report increased income, 97% receive more frequent payments, and 98% have reported an improved quality of life. Today, we work with over 30,000 farmers (40% women) through over 100 trading hubs across Ghana. All of these are only possible through the dedication and passion of a team of 150 from 10 countries.

We have laid a strong foundation, but this is only the beginning. We are now looking for a passionate and innovative individual to join us on this transformative journey and help redefine the future of African agriculture.

About the Job

As Aggregation Manager, you will lead the aggregation department to ensure efficient and effective execution of commercial operations. You will drive commodity aggregation, operational efficiency, process standardisation, data-driven decision-making, and cross-functional coordination to ensure field teams deliver exceptional, farmer-centred service.

Key Duties and Responsibilities:

1. Aggregation & volume delivery

Own delivery of the seasonal purchase plan across all buying channels (hub buying, mobile buyers, aggregators) against the volume and channel-mix targets set by the company.

Oversee the hub network, including hub site selection, opening and closure decisions, and the Hub Supervisor and Mobile Buyer structure.

Ensure an increase in volume per hub rather than hub proliferation, and make timely calls on underperforming hubs using the hub performance assessment framework.

Manage aggregator relationships (onboarding, performance, pricing within approved bands, quality compliance).

Drive pre-season farmer engagement and market activation to secure supply ahead of each harvest window.

2. Quality management

3. People leadership and management

4. Systems, data & reporting

Ensure the daily, weekly and seasonal trackers (hub daily, field weekly, season performance tracker) are complete, accurate and on time.

Provide the MD with a weekly performance report covering volume vs. target, quality, cost and key risks, plus a formal end-of-season review.

Drive SOP development and compliance for core processes (buying, weighing, etc.).

5. Stakeholder management, compliance & risk

Manage relationships with district and local authorities, and community stakeholders.

Ensure compliance with Ghana law and regulation, including produce and trading licences/levies, and food safety standards.

Ensure health & safety standards at hubs, and buying points.

6. Strategy & growth

Contribute to multi-season expansion planning (new areas, channel mix, infrastructure) and the SMT business plan for Ghana.

Identify efficiency and cost-saving opportunities and operational improvements, and bring market intelligence (prices, competitor activity, crop outlook) to the MD.
