Alrosa’s deputy CEO, Vladimir Marchenko, is stepping down from his role to pursue a new opportunity within the diamond industry.
Marchenko joined Alrosa in 2017 as vice president of production for Africa and South America, before being promoted to deputy CEO in 2018.
In his tenure, Marchenko led key projects in Africa, including efforts to identify new diamond deposits in Zimbabwe. He also currently heads the Russia-Zimbabwe Business Council (RZBC).
Alrosa CEO Pavel Marinychev praised Marchenko’s significant contributions to both the company and the broader diamond industry. “Thanks to his expertise, Alrosa has expanded its portfolio of projects across Africa,” Marinychev said.
