About Centaurus Farms
At Centaurus Farms we develop cannabis cultivation and production facilities and produce high-quality flower and extracted products. The next time we grow the same strain we use the data to get it right rather than relying on someone’s memory. Plants take their time. We just make sure we learn everything we can every time we cultivate, harvest, or trim something. Craft sets our standards. Quality is what we deliver to our customers — every time.

All part of our focused vision and what makes us a different strain of cannabis company.
14er grows, manufactures, and sells cannabis in Colorado and is launching a medical cannabis operation in Kentucky. The work is whatever needs answering that week: reporting, analysis, models, and projects, across operations, sales, and finance. Works closely with: the Controller and the leaders of operations, cultivation, and sales in both states
Hybrid, with Tuesday through Thursday in the office as the minimum.

Expect more days on site in the first months, to see how the facilities run and get to know the teams, and whenever the work calls for it. Periodic travel to Kentucky
Measure performance against the production plan. Operations owns the plan. You report each week how each site performed against it and where forecast demand and planned supply do not match. By product, customer, and channel, including pricing and promotion decisions. Budgets, projections, and capital projects. Take on projects.

Replace manual spreadsheets with reports that draw directly from our point-of-sale, track-and-trace, inventory, and accounting systems. Operations owns the physical inventory and the Controller owns its value. By day 30: you produce the weekly scorecard without help from the CEO.
# By day 60: each site's weekly output is reported against its plan, by product.
# Four to eight years of analytical work in financial planning, operations analysis, consulting, or banking. Comfort with messy data. Willingness to go to the floor.

The numbers make sense once you have seen the grow rooms, the lab, and the packaging line. Experience with physical products in manufacturing, food, or consumer goods is preferred. Cannabis experience is not required.

Excel: expert. Power Query, pivot tables, lookups, and multi-tab models that others can audit.
SQL or a reporting tool such as Power BI or Tableau: preferred.
Pulling data out of operating systems: you are comfortable exporting from accounting software such as QuickBooks, point-of-sale, and inventory systems, and joining the results.
As the leadership team grows, the role is expected to move with it, toward a senior position in finance or operations.

Sedentary Exertion: Exerts up to 10 pounds of force occasionally, or a negligible amount of force frequently, to lift, carry, push, pull, or otherwise move objects (including paperwork and light office supplies).

Stationary Position: Remains in a stationary position (sitting or standing) for prolonged periods, typically 75% to 80% of the workday.
Constantly operates a computer, keyboard, mouse, calculator, and other office productivity machinery to analyze complex financial data.
Frequently communicates, expresses oneself, and exchanges accurate information verbally and in writing during board meetings, executive briefings, and financial presentations.

Visual Acuity: Requires close visual acuity, with or without corrective lenses, to prepare and analyze data, view a computer monitor, and read extensive legal, regulatory, or financial documents.
Occasionally moves about inside the office to access file cabinets, office machinery, and meeting rooms.
