Head Grower

Head Grower Opportunity

Viridian Staffing's client is seeking a Head Grower to help guide the early planning and eventual launch of a newly permitted approximately 4K square foot cannabis cultivation and processing operation located in Southampton, New York. In this role, you will initially collaborate as a consultant, helping shape the layout and flow of the building as construction timelines move forward. Your input will help determine everything from how grow rooms are arranged to where critical infrastructure should sit. You'll also help evaluate and recommend equipment, provide feedback on architectural drafts, and begin assembling the operational foundation. Once the building is complete and planting begins, this role transitions into a full-time position where you will lead all cultivation activities. The client is looking for someone who brings deep experience in commercial cannabis cultivation for a smaller grow environment and who understands what it takes to build a healthy, efficient, and scalable grow from the ground up. You should be comfortable reviewing plans, collaborating with builders and architects, and making recommendations that will influence the long-term success of the operation. Creativity in approach, strong communication, and the ability to translate cultivation principles into practical design decisions will all be key. While the client welcomes candidates with additional experience in extraction or processing, they fully expect cultivation and processing to be separate functions long-term, and don't require one person to handle both. Once the facility is operational, you'll oversee the grow rooms, manage plant health, develop and uphold SOPs, and help build a team that shares your passion for the craft. The client describes this as the type of opportunity where someone can "make this their last job" — a chance to grow with the organization long-term and meaningfully influence how the brand develops.

Compensation: $75,000/year

Work Environment: On-Site Required upon full time conversion
