Biyinzika Poultry Uganda Limited operates an integrated poultry business that includes breeding farms, hatcheries, feed milling and poultry processing. The company says its production includes day-old chicks, animal feed and chicken products.

The company describes support for commercial and smallholder farmers through quality chicks, feed and technical support across the poultry value chain. Its consumer business supplies Pearl Chicken products through retail and food-service channels.

The Farm Administrator is the farm’s primary finance and inventory control point. The role safeguards feed stock and records receipts, issues, transfers, returns, consumption and closing balances in the ERP system.

The work includes physical counts, variance investigation, control of authorised requests and maintenance of supporting documentation and audit trails.

The post works under the functional supervision of the Inventory Manager – Operations and has a dotted operational reporting relationship with the Farm Manager. It prepares inventory, feed-consumption, egg-production and bird-movement reports for both managers, and supports stock counts, biological-asset counts, internal audits and investigations. The employer names the duty station as Mpoma 4 Farm; Mpoma is in Mukono District. The role’s distinctive emphasis is the real-time recording and reconciliation of farm inventory and biological assets.
