The cooperative does business in seed, agronomy, energy, crop protection, precision agriculture, and custom application. GROWMARK FS is part of the GROWMARK System, an agricultural cooperative serving more than 400,000 customers across North America and Ontario, Canada.

Lead a $400M agriculture retail business. Influence strategy. Drive results across the FS System.
Compensation: $275,000+ salary with a significant annual bonus opportunity tied to performance

The Opportunity

GROWMARK is seeking a strategic and results-driven General Manager to lead GROWMARK FS (GFS), a multi-state retail business serving customers across the Northeast. In this role, you'll have full accountability for performance, profitability, and long-term strategy-while leading a complex, high-impact organization and partnering closely with GROWMARK executive leadership.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Highly Competitive Compensation
    • Competitive base salary with a lucrative annual bonus opportunity tied to performance
  • Enterprise-Level Leadership
    • Lead a $400M business with 450+ employees across multiple functions and states
    • Directly lead senior leaders across agronomy, energy, finance, HR, and operations
    • Partner closely with GROWMARK C-suite and senior leadership
  • Broad Geographic Impact
    • Oversee operations across Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, and Delaware
    • Engage regularly with teams, customers, and facilities across a large, diverse territory

What You'll Do

  • Set and execute the strategic vision and business plan for GFS
  • Lead, develop, and align a high-performing leadership team
  • Drive financial performance, growth, and operational excellence
  • Partner across the GROWMARK system to ensure alignment with enterprise priorities
  • Use data, KPIs, and market insights to guide decision-making and performance

What We're Looking For

  • Proven executive leader with the ability to set vision and lead through execution
  • Strong presence with the ability to influence at the executive and board level
  • Highly collaborative - able to build relationships across field teams and corporate leadership
  • Strong financial and business acumen with experience leading large, complex operations
  • Background in agriculture, with a strong understanding of agronomy and sales

The Impact

You'll lead one of the largest retail divisions in the system-driving results across a multi-state operation, influencing hundreds of employees, and working directly with GROWMARK leadership to shape strategy, performance, and long-term success.

We are an equal opportunity/Disabled/Protected Veteran Employer. All individuals, regardless of demographic or other background, are encouraged to apply. Further, as a federal, state, and local contractor, we comply with government regulations and executive orders as applicable, including affirmative action responsibilities for qualified individuals with disability and protected veterans.
Employment is contingent on, among other things, receipt of an acceptable and job-related background check, drug test, motor vehicle report, and/or reference check, as applicable and permissible by law.
