Tana River Sugar Company (TRSC) is a Kenyan agribusiness developing a large-scale, integrated sugar and renewable-energy complex at Bura, in Tana River County. What drives us is the food security of the nation and the prosperity of the people who make it possible. We have invested deliberately in large-scale agriculture: producing sugar Kenya currently imports, generating renewable power, and unlocking the immense potential of Tana River County. We are equally invested in its people — growing local livelihoods, incomes and opportunity so that this prosperity is shared across the county and felt in every community. We operate in partnership with the Government of Kenya, the National Irrigation Authority and the people of Tana River — because a project this size only works when the community grows with it.Role Summary The Jaggery Supervisor is responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the jaggery processing plant, ensuring efficient production, consistent product quality, optimal utilization of manpower and equipment, compliance with food safety standards, and adherence to occupational health, safety, and environmental requirements.
