Head of Business Development — Incubation Egg Project
About the Role
Aitas Holding — one of Kazakhstan’s leading agro-industrial groups — is launching a new business line, “Incubation Egg”, aimed at creating a sustainable, efficient, and integrated business model within the company’s ecosystem.
We are looking for a Head of Business Unit to develop, launch, and scale this direction from the ground up — ensuring strategic growth, operational efficiency, and financial sustainability.
This is a strategic leadership role combining strategy, project management, and business development — not day-to-day administration.
Key Responsibilities
Develop a 3–5 year strategy and Go-to-Market plan for the “Incubation Egg” business line.
Conduct market and competitor analysis, define the business model and investment plan.
Lead the full-cycle project launch: team formation, budgeting, risk and stakeholder management.
Build strategic partnerships with farmers, hatcheries, suppliers, and distributors.
Develop B2B sales channels and ensure operational integration (“production → incubation → distribution”).
Build financial models, monitor ROI, and drive profitability improvements.
Travel to production sites and partner facilities as required to oversee operations and partnerships.
Requirements
Proven experience in managing business units or large-scale projects (launch, development, scaling).
Strong strategic, analytical, and leadership skills.
Experience with cross-functional teams and multi-stakeholder environments.
Higher education in Economics, Business, Engineering, or Agrotechnology (preferred).
Solid understanding of P&L management, business modeling, and investment analysis.
Fluent Russian and English.
Preferred Background
Experience in B2B sales, agriculture, logistics, or FMCG.
Ability to work effectively in dynamic, evolving environments.
Strong decision-making, systems thinking, and communication skills.
What We Offer
Opportunity to build and lead a new business direction within a leading agro-industrial company.
Strategic influence, autonomy, and impact on the future of the sector.
Professional growth in a results-driven and innovation-focused environment.
Competitive compensation and performance-based bonuses.
Business travel and active field engagement with partners and production sites.
If you’re ready to take on a strategic leadership challenge and build a new business from scratch —
join Aitas Holding and shape the future of agriculture in Kazakhstan.
Location: Astana (with business travel required)
