Build cutting-edge skills in a mission-driven organization.
We’re one of the largest agricultural organizations in Africa. We operate in nine countries - Burundi, Kenya, Malawi, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda, Ethiopia, Nigeria, and Zambia.
Our business is improving the lives of our customers. Guided by our mission, we use the discipline of a business to deliver cost-effective services to millions of people. We believe that impact starts with helping farmers grow more this season than they did the last, and we can see our impact firsthand, in healthy fields and big harvests.
Make Your Work Matter
At One Acre Fund, we measure success in our ability to make smallholder farmers more prosperous. We only serve farmers and we put Farmers First in everything we do. Every spreadsheet, every phone call, and every meeting is focused on producing better harvests and building brighter futures for some of the hardest working people on the planet.
We are passionate about learning from our customers, and we all regularly spend time in the field and get our boots muddy. We proudly build our headquarters in rural areas and humbly listen to farmers’ input. By staying close to the heart of the work, we can respond to customer needs, innovate quickly, and see the impact of our work first-hand.
Enjoy Comprehensive Benefits
We care—deeply and genuinely—about the well-being of the people on our team. We hope our talented staff will stay for many years, so we invest in long-term sustainability. We offer a flexible workplace, with casual offices, unfussy dress code, and the option to shift hours or work some time from home. We care about producing results, not time at the office.
We offer a generous benefits package because we believe strongly in supporting the well-being of staff and their families. While details vary by role and location, we generally offer health insurance for staff and their families; at least four weeks of paid vacation; allowances for housing; opportunities for professional development; and paid maternity and paternity leave.
We believe in transparency, and share details about salary and benefits early in the interview process. As a non-profit, we are not always able to match the compensation at the largest private-sector employers. However, we work to stay competitive with similar mission-driven organizations, and to provide benefits that support a good quality of life.
