Nova Poshta announced the termination of cooperation with Oleksandr Bulba, who worked at the company for 22 years and held the position of CEO for the last 10 years. Previously, the company was left by the Director of Reputation Management Olena Plakhova and the CEO of Nova Poshta in Poland Serhiy Karputyev.
«In 2025, the ten-year period of cooperation between Nova Poshta and Oleksandr Bulba, the CEO, under whose leadership the company achieved the most ambitious results, will end,» the Nova Poshta press service reported on its social networks.
The company noted that under his leadership, NP increased its annual volume of deliveries from 93 million to 500 million, and the network grew 25 times to 50,000 service points.
«At the same time, any success has its price, and even the most successful projects require a fresh look. That is why the co-owners of the company, together with Oleksandr, made a joint decision: 2025 will be the final year of his tenure as CEO of Nova Poshta,» the company noted.
Until the end of 2025, Bulba will continue to lead the company, and on December 31, 2025, Nova Poshta will receive a new CEO.
According to sources from Scroll.media, the reason for Bulba’s dismissal was that the co-owner of Nova Poshta, Volodymyr Popereshnyuk, was dissatisfied with the pace of the company’s development within Ukraine.
«It’s hard for them to grow in Ukraine, they are the leader here and have reached the ceiling, while the population is smaller, incomes are falling, expenses are growing, and there is also mobilization, rising fuel prices, constant shelling, and so on. And [annual revenue growth] +22% is not the indicator that Nova Poshta is used to. This is not 2021, when the future seemed limitless,» the publication’s anonymous source told the publication.
We will remind you that at the end of June , Nova Poshta underwent a large-scale layoff, affecting more than 20 communications specialists. This was reported to dev.ua by several sources familiar with the situation.
«The brand is at the highest point of success. Therefore, with a calm soul and a feeling of achieving all goals, I decided to go on new adventures,» commented the situation on the director of reputation management of the Nova Poshta group of companies, Olena Plakhova, who has worked in this position since 2020.
Yesterday, July 15, Nova Poshta CEO in Poland Serhiy Karputyev announced that he was leaving the company. He had held this position since 2023.
In early March 2025, Nova Poshta co-owner Volodymyr Popereshnyuk said that the company had grown to almost 30,000 employees and was looking for ways to avoid turning into a «sluggish, bureaucratic corporation.» In his post, he mentioned the US Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and announced an audit of Nova Poshta’s processes.
