Job Description:

The purpose of this role is to assist the Business System Analyst with all functions pertaining to continuous and organised system development, internal and external systems-related communications, critical data integrity maintenance, user support and training as well as commercial performance reports (operational and financial).
The ideal candidate would be transitioning from an IT or operational role, preferably in the fruit industry – previous experience and practical background should include working in and having direct contact with a multitude of intercompany departments such as logistics, operations, sales, marketing, compliance, finance and administration.
