RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Oversee all aspects of seedstock cow herd management, including breeding, calving, weaning, feeding, and grazing
  • Maintain accurate, real-time data on herd performance, movements, and health to support informed decision-making
  • Implement and manage rotational grazing systems using technology (e.g., virtual fencing) to optimize land and forage utilization
  • Monitor herd health and body condition, proactively identifying and addressing risks to performance and welfare
  • Operate and maintain equipment safely, ensuring uptime and efficiency across daily operations
  • Lead, coach, and develop a team of 1-3 employees, fostering accountability and a strong team culture
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with feedlot, sale cattle, and product development teams to align herd outcomes with business goals
  • Drive continuous improvement in herd performance, operational efficiency, and data accuracy

QUALIFICATIONS
  • Associate's degree in Animal Science, Agricultural Business, or related field preferred; equivalent hands-on experience considered
  • Strong knowledge of seedstock operations, cattle handling, bovine nutrition, and herd health practices
  • Experience with rotational grazing and technology-driven herd management systems
  • Ability to analyze data and make sound, timely decisions that support operational and genetic goals
  • Proficiency with digital tools and software for tracking cattle, grazing, and performance metrics
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate effectively with veterinarians, nutritionists, and internal stakeholders
  • Highly organized, self-directed, and capable of managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced ranch environment
  • Proficient in Microsoft Office (especially Excel) and livestock management systems (e.g., Redbook, Chute Side, URUS platforms)

About Us
In 2003, Leachman Cattle started its latest chapter of data driven beef cattle selection. The company markets four lines of highly selected genetics: Angus, Red Angus, Charolais, and Stabilizer.
Through bulls, females, semen, and embryos, Leachman supplies beef seedstock, commercial beef cow/calf producers, and dairies with genetics selected for increased profitability. Additionally, Leachman provides data tools to aid producers in identifying the best genetics for their operation.
The world loves exceptional beef - we help produce it!
