Human Capital Plan
The leadership and key roles, the workforce and skills development, and the organisational scaling.
Execution depends on assembling experienced leadership across
agribusiness, processing, food safety, exports and finance, supported by
a trained operational workforce.
23.1 Leadership and key roles
| Function | Responsibility |
|---|---|
| Chief Executive Officer | Strategy, capital, stakeholder & board leadership |
| Chief Operating Officer | Plant, feedlot, logistics & throughput delivery |
| Chief Financial Officer | Finance, treasury, reporting, investor relations |
| Head of Procurement & Farmer Integration | Supply base, aggregation, farmer programmes |
| Head of Quality, Halaal & Compliance | Food safety, halaal, accreditation, audits |
| Head of Sales & Exports | Domestic & export channel development |
| Head of Technology & Traceability | ERP, traceability, data & analytics |
23.2 Workforce and skills development
The operational workforce scales with throughput across the plant,
feedlots, aggregation centres and logistics. Investment in training — in
food safety, halaal compliance, animal welfare and technical skills —
builds both capability and the social-impact profile, with deliberate
emphasis on local and previously excluded recruitment.
23.3 Organisational scaling
Headcount and overhead are modelled to scale sub-linearly with
revenue, reflecting operating leverage: overhead and administration fall
from roughly 10.6% of revenue in Year 1 to about 7.0% by Year 5,
contributing to margin expansion.
