We have an exciting vacancy: Progreso is looking for a Country Manager based in Colombia.
If you have a strong background in financial analysis and business advisory with coffee or cocoa producer organizations, and you care about the sector beyond the spreadsheet, this role might be a good fit.
As Country Manager, you’ll be embedded in our Colombia operations, working closely with our agroforestry expert in-country and our Latin America Programme Manager. Day-to-day, that means analyzing the financial health of producer organizations, advising on everything from cash flow projections to price risk management, and helping to build and sustain the partnerships that make projects actually happen. You’ll also collaborate with colleagues across Peru and Nicaragua, and play an active role in how Progreso represents itself externally in Colombia.
We’re looking for someone with at least five years of hands-on experience working with coffee or cocoa cooperatives in a financial or business advisory capacity, a degree in economics, accounting, or business administration, and fluency in Spanish (basic English is also required). Multi-stakeholder project experience and a track record of facilitating training or capacity-building processes are a strong plus.
The role is full-time (40 hours/week) on a consultancy basis, hybrid, and based in Colombia.
Applications close 17 May 2026. Send your CV to patricia@progreso.nl — virtual interviews are scheduled for 18–22 May.
