Job descriptions & requirements

You will turn the group's mission into a unified, smoothly running operation on the ground.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead and coordinate all seven divisions of the Kenya venture so they perform as one operation
  • Review performance across every division weekly, and identify the biggest obstacle to overall production
  • Resolve obstacles directly, or route them to the right team, before they block delivery
  • Resolve conflicts between divisions quickly and make sure decisions are recorded
  • Approve resource allocations, budgets and hiring decisions within your authority
  • Stop any activity that puts our mission, our people or our compliance at risk
  • Give head office clear, honest and timely reporting, and escalate decisions that fall outside your authority
  • Translate strategic direction from head office into clear operational priorities for every division head
  • Build and develop strong division heads who perform their roles and escalate correctly

RequirementsKey Responsibilities

  • Build and scale a high-performing outgrower system across project regions
  • Take ownership of farmer network performance and delivery outcomes
  • Establish clear processes for onboarding, training, and monitoring
  • Lead and develop local field teams and implementation partners
  • Ensure operational consistency across multiple geographies
  • Maintain strong relationships with farmer groups and community stakeholders
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of field operations and program design

Who We’re Looking For

This is a senior role. We are looking for an experienced executive who has led complex, multi-team operations in the field, not from behind a desk.

  • Proven experience leading a country, regional or multi-division operation, ideally in agriculture, agroforestry, carbon, land restoration or rural development
  • Strong track record managing large teams and large smallholder or community networks
  • Hands-on operational mindset with a focus on execution and delivery
  • Experience managing budgets, resources and cross-functional coordination
  • Ability to solve problems independently in complex, fast-moving environments
  • Honest, clear communicator who reports results as they are, good or bad
  • Strong leadership skills, comfortable taking ownership and making decisions
  • Strong knowledge of Kenya's agricultural and community landscape, including government and regulatory stakeholders
  • Fluency in English; Swahili is a strong advantage
