Outgrower Program Manager -Nyahururu Job Green Earth
Project Management Jobs, Green Earth Group Jobs.
Green Earth Group is a leading developer of nature-based projects, focused on reforestation, land restoration, biodiversity, and sustainable land use. We work directly with local communities and smallholder farmers to implement projects at scale and generate high-quality environmental assets.
After years of project development, we are now scaling execution. This means building strong field structures, onboarding thousands of farmers, and ensuring consistent delivery across multiple regions.
We are:
- Highly operational and execution-focused
- Working at the intersection of nature, agriculture, and finance
- Scaling rapidly across international markets
- Focused on real, measurable impact—not just strategy
Responsibilities:
Our projects depend on strong smallholder execution. This role is responsible for building and running the outgrower system that underpins everything we do.
You will translate project design into field reality.
- Design and implement scalable outgrower / smallholder program structures
- Build and manage farmer onboarding, registration, and engagement processes
- Organize farmers into clusters, cooperatives, or lead-farmer networks
- Manage field teams (extension officers, agronomists, local partners)
- Ensure consistent implementation of agricultural and land-use practices
- Monitor farmer performance, participation, and retention
- Identify and mitigate delivery risks early (non-performance, low survival, drop-off)
- Work closely with carbon, data, and project teams to ensure alignment between field execution and project requirements
- Improve traceability, discipline, and accountability across the farmer network
Requirements
Key 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 not an entry-level role. We are looking for experienced professionals who have built or managed real-world smallholder or outgrower systems.
- Proven experience in outgrower schemes, contract farming, agroforestry, or rural development programs
- Strong track record managing large farmer networks (ideally 1,000+ farmers)
- Hands-on field experience—this is not a desk-based strategy role
- Experience managing and scaling field teams
- Strong operational mindset with a focus on execution and delivery
- Ability to work in complex, fast-moving environments
- Comfortable taking ownership and solving problems independently
- Strong communication and leadership skills
