Branch Manager in NE Missouri

We’re seeking a driven and relationship-focused Branch Manager for one of our clients’ retail location, part of a well-established agricultural cooperative. This branch has strong roots in the community, and while we’re not in a crisis, we’re ready to invest in the right person to bring it back to top performance and long-term stability.

This is an ideal role for someone ready to take the next step—whether you're a team lead, supervisor, or someone with a few years of ag retail experience who thrives on customer interaction, accountability, and follow-through.

What You’ll Be Doing :

• Lead the day-to-day operations of a small ag retail location with three team members .
• Act as the face of the branch—build and maintain customer relationships with area farmers and ag partners.
• Build service reputation by delivering on promises : under promise and over deliver is key.
• Collaborate with agronomists and other experienced branch managers across our coop network to learn and grow in the role.
• Manage product, inventory, customer orders, and general branch duties.
• Guide and support team members while fostering a positive, results-driven environment.
• Step into a leadership role that may grow over time—this is a long-term opportunity, not a stopgap.

Who We’re Looking For :

Compensation & Benefits :

Why This Role is Open :

The prior long-term manager retired.  While the current manager is holding steady operationally, it’s clear he’s not the long-term fit and he would prefer to move back into operations. We’ve both recognized it, and we’re ready to fix it.

This isn’t a mess—this is an opportunity to step into a stable branch , make it your own, and grow into a long-term leadership role in the coop.

Next Steps :

Phone interviews will start soon – we’re taking a selective, thoughtful approach to finding the right person.
