GRAIN marketer Nick Jordan has joined the ADM team to manage its grower origination program in SA.
Originally from Riverton, Nick joins ADM following six years with Viterra.
His early experience spanned grower communications and logistics with the Viterra storage and handling business, which provided a solid industry grounding for his move to its marketing and accumulation team in 2018.
"ADM is excited to have Nick on-board to manage our SA grower origination program," ADM group accumulation manager Damian Bradford said.
"Nick's industry experience and long-held relationships with local grain and pulse growers are a great fit for ADM.

"Our local operations are evolving in-step with industry, so it is imperative we draw on local SA talent to drive our business forward and continue the evolution process."
Nick is taking over the grower origination program in SA from Zac Ellis and more recently George Treloar, who have both accepted internal promotions at the company's Australian head office in Adelaide.
Nick said he already was enjoying the "fresh perspective'' with ADM and its related business with growers.
"ADM is creating different avenues of getting grain to port and exporting grain from SA and that's exciting,'' he said.
"It's good to talk with growers from that perspective.''
