myAgro is undergoing an exciting period of growth as we seek to double our reach every year. We are currently hiring for a number of key roles (see openings here), including a Chief Development Officer and a Country Director in both Mali and Senegal!
Country Director
It is a rare and exciting opportunity to apply to be a myAgro Country Director in Mali or Senegal. We’re looking for a smart, hardworking and fun person to join our incredible team as part of our 2020 push towards 200,000 farmers. Team 2020 marks a transition in myAgro’s trajectory: we’re moving from start-up to lean & scaling as we build out our executive team to help myAgro reach 1 million farmers by 2025. Be part of this founding team that gets myAgro to where few organizations have gone before: 1 million smallholder farmers producing and earning more thanks to your (and their) hard work.
We’re looking for a commander in chief for our operations in Mali and separately for Senegal. Someone to lead a smart and savvy team of operations and technical experts. Your daily mission is to build the team, processes and systems to deliver operational excellence throughout our organization.
As a country director, you will lead country-wide operations and spend time in the field observing, learning, and sharing feedback with your top field lieutenants. You will develop partnerships, collaborate with our existing partners, and build relationships with institutional funders and other agricultural stakeholders. You will raise myAgro’s visibility at strategic conferences and meetings and identify opportunities to showcase myAgro’s work nationally and globally. Finally, you will create a positive and productive workplace that values hard work, feedback, continuous learning, inclusion and commitment to our work.
We are looking for a strong candidate that meets our Country Director requirements. If this is you, submit your application online at https://www.myagro.org/join-our-team/.
