Escuela Agrícola Panamericana, commonly known as Zamorano, is searching for its 11th president. The private agriculture school, founded in 1941, is located about 25 miles east of Tegucigalpa, Honduras, in the beautiful, rural Valle del Zamorano.
Zamorano enjoys an excellent reputation throughout Latin America. It has an office in Washington, DC.
So why I am I posting this here? Simply because we all know of the close connection between food and water. In addition, in the past 15-20 years, Zamorano has moved from a traditional ‘feed ‘em and weigh ‘em’ ag school to one with a broader perspective (environment and water). It was founded by United Fruit Company but is no longer is affiliated with the firm, now known as Chiquita Brands International. I know and have worked with some of its excellent faculty, in particular, Luis Caballero and Robert Walle.
Candidates must possess an earned PhD or equivalent and fluency in Spanish and English.
Position descriptions (English and Spanish) and a search profile (English) are posted below.

Exciting opportunity. Oh, to be fluent in Spanish!
Thanks to my friend Rolando López for sending me this information.
