We believe you should have opportunities to grow, develop relationships, and contribute to our important work of ensuring that farmers worldwide have the genetics, technology, and hands-on solutions needed to feed the world.

About the Role

We are currently looking for a Field Data Coordinator to fill a newly created role, and join our Research and Innovation team. The Field Data Coordinator will serve as a key point for Semex field data initiatives, helping drive actions and follow-through across farm data access, data quality, analysis, and reporting. The job holder will work closely with R&I, Analytics, Operations, and other internal stakeholders, as well as field contacts, producers, herd managers, and external data providers, to improve the volume, quality, continuity, and timeliness of field data, interpret results, and translate findings into practical insights that support operational decision-making.

What You Will Do:

  • Develop and maintain relationships with partner herds that align with Semex field data priorities and identify opportunities to expand data coverage.
  • Coordinate herd recruitment, onboarding, participation, timelines, and follow-up with producers, field teams, and data providers.
  • Monitor incoming field and reproductive data for quality, continuity, and timeliness.
  • Identify missing, delayed, or inconsistent records and coordinate practical resolution with herd, field, and technical contacts.
  • Maintain herd records, contact history, participation status, data-source information, breeding volumes, quality indicators, targets, and outstanding actions.
  • Develop and maintain an annual field data acquisition plan that identifies data gaps, priority herds, new data opportunities, expected outcomes, and required actions.
  • Support the addition of new herds, herd-management platforms, and data sources.
  • Analyze field data, identify trends, gaps, and emerging issues, and translate findings into clear, practical insights for internal teams and field partners.
  • Support cloud-based tracking, reporting, and dashboard tools that provide access to descriptive statistics and key data metrics.
  • Lead practical improvements to herd engagement, data collection, data flow, analysis, and reporting processes.

What You Need to Succeed:

  • Diploma or degree in animal science, agriculture, dairy science, agribusiness, data analytics, data management, or a related field.
  • Strong organizational and follow-through skills, with the ability to coordinate multiple herds, contacts, activities, and timelines.
  • Strong understanding of field data, with the ability to analyze and interpret results using farm records, spreadsheets, databases, reporting systems, and data-quality processes.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with confidence working with producers, field contacts, and internal and external stakeholders.
  • Practical and proactive problem-solver who can identify issues, coordinate solutions, and escalate risks when needed.
  • Detail-oriented, dependable, collaborative, and adaptable, with sound judgment when handling confidential operational and herd data.
  • Strong understanding of field data and the ability to analyze and interpret it
  • Practical knowledge of farm and reproductive records, data management, and partner-herd coordination
  • Knowledge of dairy reproduction, fertility management, and herd-recording systems.
  • Experience working with dairy producers, agricultural field operations, commercial breeding programs, or industry data providers.
  • Experience with Excel, Power BI, cloud-based data environments, dashboards, databases, or data-quality reporting.
  • Experience with large or complex datasets. Familiarity with SQL, R, Python, or other analytical tools is an asset but is not required.
