👋 About Us

We’re The Healthy Chicken Company, an ag-tech start-up that believes you can have your chicken and eat it too! Using advanced AI, we’re on a mission to transform the poultry industry by improving the lives of the 1.8 trillion chickens reared over the next few decades.

How do we do it? Our system ‘watches’ flocks and sheds with smart cameras and sensors and delivers data and insights to farmers (and others in the supply chain) that help improve welfare. It’s a win-win-win-win: good for the birds, good for farmers, good for the environment and good for you!

Our team is made up of industry-leading technical talent and ambitious entrepreneurs who genuinely want to make a difference. We embrace diversity, representing 10+ nationalities and people from all walks of life (there are even a few vegetarians in our ranks; all welcome). We’re fun, quirky, humble, ambitious, and passionate.

It’s an exciting time of growth for FLOX – and we’re looking for like-minded people to join the team.

💼 About The Role

We are looking for an Operations Associate to join the team and drive our agritech product forward towards full scale commercialisation. You will be part of a small team and work with the Operations Lead to manage both the business operations and the commercial rollout of our technology to poultry farms in the UK.

Beyond any specific experience or academic qualifications, what is most important for this role is to be willing to throw yourself into a new industry and a new technology with energy and purpose. This is a generalist role where no task is too small, and you will be able to own and run your ideas and see them come to fruition.

This role is hands-on and based in our offices in Hackney (E8). It also includes frequent travel to our clients’ farms to oversee the teams running the installations, although you can WFH as and when needed.

We’re a growing start-up with plenty of room for progression and making the role your own. Occasionally, and in line with your strengths and interests, you may be asked to work outside your job description.
