Flavie LARBRE
Ingenieur agronome - Ouellé, GABON, SUCAF Gabon
I hold a diploma of HNC in agriculture-horticulture and an engineering degree in agro-economics. My professional aspiration is on overseas plant production and its related domains.
I have been working on field for a considerable period of time. In fact even until yesterday I have been experimenting on cultivating hybrid tomatoes and selecting varieties which could be popular and in demand in the market. I also worked with community-based programs in Northern Uganda with “Shea Project for local conservation and development”. This experience offered me the chance to work with local NGOs and the people on conserving the shea resource and to improve the livelihood of the locals by making efforts on creating value additions on the shea nuts and shea butter for national and international market.
I have already worked in an english speaking country where I perfectly integrated myself in the environment. I am a pleasant person by nature and adaptable to situations.
I sincerely feel that I am the right candidate for the job based on the following points:
- agronomist engineer,
- young and dynamic,
- flexible, mobile and independent,
- having already worked in several african countries,
- and having good writing and communication skills and result oriented and focused.
Do not hesitate to contact me.
