The Opportunity
Following its founding in 2012, Ice Fish Farm has seen significant success and is now the leading player in the Icelandic salmon fishing market, with full control over the East Fjords and the highest license volume in Iceland. Access to high-quality post-smolt is key to further developing this industry in Iceland and ICE Fish Farm has ambitious growth plans for their two land-based facilities.
As Manager Land South, you will join the executive management team and report to the CEO. Your team of 15-20 staff is based locally and focus on site operations, fish health, and quality.
