The International Blueberry Organization (IBO) is proud to announce the launch of BlueCareers, a new recruitment platform developed specifically for the global blueberry industry. Designed to bring together employers and professionals, BlueCareers serves as a centralized hub for career opportunities, job postings, resume submissions, and networking.

As the blueberry industry continues to expand worldwide, BlueCareers aims to facilitate growth and development by addressing one of the sector’s most pressing needs: attracting and retaining qualified talent. The platform empowers job seekers and employers across the full spectrum of the blueberry industry, offering opportunities at every level of the value chain.

Recently Mario Steta, Chairman of the IBO, reflected on the challenges of structural labor scarcity facing the blueberry industry. He emphasized that workforce issues cannot be addressed individually but require collaboration and a broader strategic view. “Labor has two dimensions: the need for collective action, and the competitive advantage to be gained if managed well,” he writes. “BlueCareers is designed to support both sides of this challenge.”

All employers and professionals within the industry can access the platform at bluecareers.internationalblueberry.org, where they will be able to post and browse job opportunities, submit resumes, and connect through a growing directory of industry members worldwide. IBO members benefit from preferential access and rates, reinforcing the organization’s commitment to delivering added value for its community.

With its global reach and tailored focus, BlueCareers represents a key milestone in the IBO’s mission to support the sustainable growth and professionalize the blueberry industry.
