Market Access Portfolio Strategy & Prioritization
- Strategic Roadmap: Define the multi-year strategy across priority value chains (e.g., cashew and avocado) with clear sequencing and resourcing.
- Opportunity Assessment: Evaluate and recommend whether to invest, partner, pilot, or scale specific value chains based on commercial viability and farmer impact.
- Risk-Adjusted Execution: Translate country-level goals into a focused portfolio that balances realistic growth with proactive risk management.
Value Chain Development
- Model Design: Develop commercially sound models for processing and aggregation, determining the best delivery approach (direct vs. partner-led) for the context.
- Partnership Management: Lead the identification, negotiation, and performance management of strategic commercial partners and third-party processors
- Program Alignment: Oversee farmer-facing delivery to ensure field operations align with both commercial requirements and farmer inclusion goals.
Performance, Analysis & Risk Management
- Business Case Ownership: Drive financial analysis, growth plans, and data-backed recommendations for scaling or exiting specific workstreams.
- Performance Tracking: Implement practical systems to monitor supply, sales, partner performance, and tangible outcomes for farmers.
- Risk Mitigation: Identify operational, commercial, and regulatory risks early to implement sensible mitigation strategies.
Leadership: Team, Cross-Functional & Representation
- Team & Operating Model: Build and lead a high-performing team with clear role accountability across HQ coordination and field delivery.
- Cross-Functional Synergy: Partner with Supply Chain, Finance, and Government Relations to ensure seamless end-to-end execution of department goals.
- External Representation: Serve as the primary liaison for buyers, government stakeholders, and donors while advising country leadership on capital and talent allocation.

- You have a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in business, economics, agribusiness, agriculture, supply chain, or a related field.
- You have at least 5 years of experience in agribusiness, market access, value chain development, or commercial agriculture — including leading teams and driving strategy through to execution.

- You have the ability to operate at multiple levels. Equally comfortable setting a multi-year strategy, managing a team, and getting into operational detail when needed.
- You have a practical understanding of how value chains work from farmer aggregation and quality compliance through to processing, buyers, and export dynamics
