About Agri-Cycle

Agri-Cycle is New England's largest and fastest-growing food waste collection company. We partner with businesses, institutions, and communities across the region to divert organic material from landfills and turn it into renewable energy, high-quality compost, and animal feed.


Position Overview

The Compost Operations Manager is an integral member of the Agri-Cycle team, based at our composting facility in North Hartland, Vermont, which is operated in partnership with the Greater Upper Valley Solid Waste District (GUVSWD). This role oversees all aspects of day-to-day composting operations, including sourcing amendments, receiving and processing incoming organic material, recipe building, and managing overall site activities. The Compost Operations Manager is also responsible for monitoring and documenting key pile metrics, and for operating and maintaining site equipment along with other members of the team. This is a full-time, on-site position that works closely with the Agri-Cycle team, including the Transfer Facility Manager based at the same location, to identify and implement operational improvements. The role reports to the General Manager and/or Compost Division Lead. Occasional weekend availability may be needed to support community events and operational needs.
