Vice President, Operations
I manage a team of food safety consultants throughout North and South America.
My job is a combination of business activities (budgeting, forecasting, capacity planning) and technical activities (helping a client prepare for an FDA visit, developing training materials on pest control for my team) and managerial activities (managing a virtual team, which is often early days and / or late evenings to suit everyone's schedules).
Here's the first step for college students
My organization provides training and consulting services to food and beverage manufacturing companies. The best way to start in the field is to get a job in food and beverage manufacturing. Your first role could be in production, quality, or sanitation. There is an ongoing workforce shortage in food manufacturing, so getting started should be easy.
