One Acre Fund supplies smallholder farmers with the financing and training they need to grow their way out of hunger and poverty. Instead of giving handouts, we invest in farmers to generate a permanent gain in farm income. We supply a complete service bundle of seeds and fertilizer, financing, training, and market facilitation—and we deliver these services within walking distance of the 600,000+ rural farmers we serve. The Rwanda program is currently transitioning from a start-up environment to a mature operation – and we are seeking a mid-career professional with demonstrated operations management ability to help us build the team and operational systems we need to deliver impact to farmers efficiently. Our Field Operations Director will be one of the most influential people in the Rwanda program and will quickly join the organization-wide leadership group.
