OPERATIONS MANAGER, VOLARE

Join Volare as an Operations Manager and drive sustainable Innovation!

We are looking for a practical Operations Manager/käyttöpäällikkö for a permanent position at Volare. The exact location will be determined once the investment decision is made, with potential sites. Potential sites include locations in the Western or Southern Coast of Finland. You can start working soon or after the summer. The recruitment partner is Barona Engineering.

Volare began its journey in April 2021 as a spin-off from VTT, driven by a mission to transform industrial food waste into high-value protein, oil, and fertilizer through the natural bioconversion power of the black soldier fly. By creating new uses for previously overlooked side streams-such as grains and other plant-based by-products-we are helping meet the growing global demand for sustainable raw materials while reducing waste at the same time.

Since opening our demonstration factory near Helsinki in early 2022, we have proven that our process can deliver the efficiency, product quality, and scalability needed to compete in global feed, fuel, and agriculture sectors. Our innovative approach has also attracted strong industry partnerships, including offtake agreements with the aquafeed giant Skretting and a large chemical company, and paved the way for our first commercial-scale facility.

At Volare, we believe that tackling critical resource challenges requires both creativity and collaboration. Our proprietary technology ensures we can extract maximum value from side streams that would otherwise go to waste, helping our partners and customers reach their sustainability targets more effectively. By continuously improving our processes, we’re shaping a more responsible supply chain in the food and chemical industries.

The Role:

We are now looking for a driven Operations Manager to join Volare on this journey. By becoming part of the team, you’ll be working at the forefront of circular economy innovation-transforming agricultural by-products and industrial food waste into novel, eco-friendly solutions that make a tangible difference for our planet and its people.

Key Responsibilities:

-Oversee installation and commissioning of the new facility
-Ensure stable and efficient operations once the plant is operational
-Manage maintenance activities and ensure operational reliability
-Ensure adequate staffing and skill levels within the team
-Participate in the construction phase, identifying maintenance targets, and developing maintenance schedules and programs
-Hands-on involvement in installation work, not just overseeing maintenance services.

Qualifications:

We are seeking a candidate with relevant experience in project management and engineering roles, excellent engineering skills, and strong collaboration skills with suppliers and contractors. The ideal candidate will have a firm commitment to quality and production efficiency, technical expertise in mechanics or electrical automation, and a practical, hands-on approach with a willingness to get involved in installation work. Basic IT skills are required, and experience with Siemens automation is a plus. An ideal background includes experience as an operations manager involved in installations and running a production facility.

Desired Personal Attributes:

The successful candidate will have a precise and efficient working style, a positive, team-oriented problem-solving attitude, and strong communication skills with an understanding of the importance of effective communication.

Why Join Volare?

By joining Volare, you’ll be part of a pioneering team dedicated to making a positive impact on the environment and society. You’ll have the opportunity to shape the future of sustainable production and be at the heart of a company poised for significant growth and success.

Please submit your application via the provided link as soon as possible. We are interviewing candidates during the application period.
