The brewery is located in Guinea Bissau and it is the only brewery in the country, so you will be brewing the national beer.
The brewery features a 100 bbl brewhouse and a kegging line, we currently don't bottle the beer but a 6000 bottles/h bottling line will come in the near future. We also have a fully equipped lab with a lab technician to make all sort of cultures, analysis and tests. Ah! we also have a cO2 recovery plant which is great.
You will be managing a team of 27 workers together with the director of brewing, so we are looking for a team player, with leadership skills.
What we will expect from you:
- At least 2 years experience in the brewing industry, any sort of Brewing degree is an advantage but not essential, we value more experience.
- You must be able to plan 4-5 months ahead as spare parts and ingredients can take a long time to get here.
- As you will be working with the director of brewing, you also will keep track of keg production and sales, so proficiency in excel is desirable.
- This is Africa, we have to face some sort challenge every day, so you must have good problem solving skills.
- Knowledge of Spanish or Portuguese are desirable, as this is a Portuguese speaking country.
- Our employees are very good at what they do, they know their duties very well, but you will be able to organize and monitor their work.
- Also you may be required to travel occasionally to Equatorial Guinea to work in our other brewery.
It is a rare opportunity to be able to manage a brewery this size, so this position would suit a recent graduate with a sense of adventure or a seasoned brewer willing to try the joys of brewing in Africa. We have many challenges coming upfront, the new bottling line, developing a new premium beer, and expanding to a new huge facility, so if you want to gain some invaluable experience, this is the position you've been looking for.
What we offer:
- Competitive salary package
- 500$/month in local currency for living expenses
- Accommodation with housekeeping service (you will not have to worry about laundry, cleaning or cooking)
- 45 days of paid holiday per year flights included (depending on where you are based, you can split those 45 days in up to 3 different trips)
So if you are interested please send me a personal message.
Cheers
