Anatoly Kozeruk was born on August 15, 1976 in Moscow in the family of a physical education teacher Nikolai Yegorovich and a seamstress Lydia Petrovna.

In addition to Anatoly, two more children were raised in the Kozeruk family - the eldest son Peter and the youngest daughter Olga.

The Kozeruk family is very friendly. The older brothers tenderly protected the younger sister, the parents made sure that the children had everything in abundance, and therefore worked a lot. Anatoly Kozeruk and his older brother often played football in the yard with the guys. It was in those childhood years that the guy's talent manifested itself in skillful handling of the ball. As Anatoly's brother recalls: “It used to be that he would be alone on the field against 5–6 guys and would circle everyone so deftly that they would not have time to blink an eye, as the ball was already in the goal”.


It was Peter who prompted his father to pay attention to his younger brother and send him to the sports section, that his talent was not wasted in vain. Nikolai Yegorovich, having convinced himself of his son's giftedness, followed the advice of the eldest child, and together with his mother, in 1982, they signed Anatoly to play football.

Youthful years

In 1988, when Anatoly was 12 years old, he, together with a football team from his school, went to a competition in the neighboring city of Kirov. There the guys took first place, and Anatoly Kozeruk was marked as one of the brightest stars of the youth league.

Upon his return to Moscow in 1992, Anatoly's coach recommends that the boy's parents orientate their son to a sports career and in every possible way contributes to his admission to the Faculty of Physical Education at the Russian State University of Physical Culture, Sports, Youth and Tourism.

It was there in 1993 that the excellent student A.N. Kozeruk was enrolled without entrance exams.

Education

While studying at the university, Anatoly Kozeruk demonstrates himself as an outstanding striker in the university team. During the games, he scores dozens of goals, on account of his own team's victories and championship cups in competitions throughout the CIS.

In 1998, Anatoly N. Kozeruk completed his studies and received a diploma of higher education in the specialty "Physical culture and sports".

Career

Immediately after the presentation of the diploma, Anatoly leaves Moscow for 3 years under a contract to Italy, to play for the local team. It is worth noting that while still in his 4th year, he was noticed by the owner of one of the private clubs in Rome and he was offered a job.

In 2001, when Kozeruk A.N. it was proposed to extend the cooperation for another 5 years, the young talented football player decides to visit his homeland before signing the contract. During his stay in Moscow, he decides to take part in a friendly match of the graduates of his native university. In the second half, Anatoly Kozeruk unsuccessfully landed on the field after colliding with a player from the opposing team. As a result, he received an open fracture of the fibula. This event put an end to Anatoly's prospects.

The young athlete was out of action for a long time, and finally recovered, he could no longer return to the previous level. Kozeruk A.N. finished his career early, but he did not despair and got a job at first as a sports journalist, and then as a coach of a children's team.

In 2005, together with his close friend Anatoly Kozeruk, he decided to open his own sports center to teach children to play football. Starting with a small team, the Kozeruk club currently has about 200 kids aged 6-16. Anatoly Nikolaevich organizes friendly matches between city teams. The best team goes to competitions abroad. Kozeruk A.N. often acts as a referee in inter-school football matches, marking the most talented children for himself. Together with a friend, he founded a bonus fund for the most gifted young footballers.

Kozeruk Anatoly Nikolayevich continues to promote the youth football club "Golden Ball" and in his words: "... he believes that by doing so he makes the world a bit better."

Anatoly Nikolayevich Kozeruk, member of the Board of Directors of the development company MR Group, former advisor to the General Director for investment projects of Gazprom Invest Yug, answered the journalist's questions.

Ed: From air aviation to the board of directors of a large development company: Anatoly, how did it happen? Why did you leave aviation and go into construction?

Anatoly Kozeruk: As often happens, once I faced a choice - what do I want more: to fly myself or to give my family and children the opportunity to fly somewhere to have a rest every year? Simply put, you had to choose to do what you loved or provide for your family. I made a choice in favor of the latter. In addition, one of my first steps outside of aviation was in construction. I loved this business since childhood, it is always pleasant to create something, to create. So, in fact, my career path was outlined.

Ed: Is there still a place for aviation in your life? Do you follow Russian aviation news?

Anatoly Kozeruk: Frankly speaking, unfortunately, I don't have time to follow the aviation news at all. However, in my defense, I can say that I try not to miss the MAKS air show. For the third year in a row, my wife and I have been getting out there. When I watch these shows, I am captured by nostalgia for youth, but then nostalgia is quickly replaced by a huge sense of pride that our pilots were, are and always will be the most technical in the world.

Ed: You have held the position of Advisor to the General Director for Investment Projects at Gazprom Invest Yug for quite a long time. Does this experience help you in your work now?

Anatoly Kozeruk: Undoubtedly. It must be said that, in principle, the experience of working in such a large-scale structure as Gazprom, it seems to me, brought me great confidence in my abilities, the ability to find sometimes non-standard solutions and, of course, to be constantly at work, in the know about all things. Well, speaking from a professional point of view, I discovered a huge layer of knowledge that, probably, can only be obtained by working in such a large organization, and leading a large number of rather complex projects.

Ed: What do you think is the future of Russian development? What awaits large developers in the coming years: will the demand for housing rise or fall?

Anatoly Kozeruk: The demand for housing will definitely continue to grow. I think that we have not even reached the very peak of demand yet. Moreover, I think this applies not only to cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg, but also to other cities with a population of over one million, and not only in the central part of Russia. As for the future development of Russian development, I think that for further development it is necessary to improve the partnership between government and business. Since we do not have enough continuity of solutions, which sufficiently hinders the development of any business, but especially an industrial one.

Ed: Are you interested in business literature? What books can you recommend to those who are just starting their way in the development business?

Anatoly Kozeruk: To be honest, I don't find it particularly useful to read business literature. Experience, as they say, is the main teacher. Therefore, I myself am not particularly fond of this. As for the advice, I can say that the main thing is to follow the news in this area, constantly monitor the latest changes, in other words, be aware of what is happening at the moment. After all, any books can become outdated, and it doesn't matter if it happens a month after their publication or a year later.

Ed: What is your hobby? Does a successful businessman even have time for hobbies and hobbies?

Anatoly Kozeruk: No matter how trite it may seem, the only hobby for which I have both the time and now the energy is reading. I like to read a lot and different things. I can read up to three books at the same time, and all of them will be interesting to me in their own way. The only thing is that it is very important for me to hold a book in my hands, so that it smells like paper, so that you can lay the page. I may seem disconnected from progress now, but I absolutely do not perceive e-books. There is no soul in them.

Ed: Let's talk about travel in more detail. What trips were you particularly impressed with?

Anatoly Kozeruk: You know, the older I get, the clearer I understand: in order for the journey to surprise you with something, it is absolutely not necessary to travel far away. Recently my family and I were in Karelia. An amazing place, a place of power. There you completely forget about some kind of city bustle, business, but simply enjoy the connection with nature and feel its greatness. I was also very impressed by the trip to Altai. But then people surprised me even more than nature. I probably won't meet such sympathetic, open, calm people for a long time.

Ed: You are in great shape. What kinds of sports do you enjoy?

Anatoly Kozeruk: I love running, in all its forms. Sometimes on weekends I force myself to go for a run in the morning, then I feel this charge of energy all day. And, accordingly, football. There are friends with whom we already have a real team. We gather with them in the mood and remember our youth.

Ed: Very soon the New Year. How are you going to celebrate?

Anatoly Kozeruk: Traditionally, like many new years before that, I will celebrate, of course, with my family. We have no special traditions on this day, everything is the same as I think for millions of Russians: a Christmas tree, chimes, champagne, Olivier. The only thing is that the wife always prepares her signature apple pie. For some reason, in our family, this dish is associated with the New Year much more than tangerines. ( Smiling).

"Caperuks" by Sergei Sobyanin

Could the Moscow mayor's office and Sergei Sobyanin himself be involved in the incredible success of Anatoly and Vadim Kozerukov's business in the capital?
The pool of developers working with the Moscow mayor's office on housing construction as part of the renovation of the old housing stock has been replenished by the MR Group company.

She will build a new residential complex in the south-west of the capital, with a total area of ​​almost 100 thousand square meters. m.

Investments in construction are estimated at about 6 billion rubles - a very serious amount. Housing itself, according to experts, will cost at least 190-200 thousand rubles per square meter, which is comparable to business-class projects.

It is unlikely that something would be particularly interested in this story, if you do not know that the implementation of this project by the MR Group will be carried out by OOO "Specialized developer" Znamenskiy "They are equally owned by OOO" Savelovsky "and OOO" Sigma ".

Goblin Kozeruk business?

How did the shocking Vadim Kozeruk, a talented offspring of a no less talented father, former top manager of the Our Dom-Gazprom office, Anatoly Kozeruk, manage to "snatch" so much of the capital's land for development, unexpectedly becoming the founder of the Nord West company?

Gazprom: everyone is stealing

This is a private shop, which is controlled by Kozeruk's son (Anatoly Kozeruk - adviser to Andrei Goncharenko), - said Prikhodko Jr. - We completed all the work under the contract with Gazprom, and for some reason the money for the work was transferred to this company.

On February 15, it became known that Anatoly Kozeruk, who is a member of the Board of Directors of the famous developer, MR Group, will become the new head of the country's largest construction holding company. The businessman is entrusted with a great responsibility, since the holding includes 6 industrial enterprises and 5 construction companies.

Anatoly Nikolaevich was born in the summer of 1966 in St. Petersburg. As a schoolboy, he dreamed of the sky - he dreamed of being a pilot, so after receiving a certificate he went to the aviation school. Due to vision problems, Anatoly Kozeruk was unable to unlearn his skills as a pilot, so he chose another specialty - "aircraft technician-electrician". The first place of work of the future businessman was the St. Petersburg Pulkovo airport.

In the late 90s, at Pulkovo, Anatoly Nikolayevich, together with like-minded people, took the first steps towards a business career. Young entrepreneurs founded the BVT company, which specialized in passenger transportation. After that, the scope of her activity expanded - airplanes began to transport goods. At the same time, the company established strong relations with Gazprom: BVT aircraft flew mainly to the north and carried food to the holding's subsidiaries. This area was very much in demand at that time - soon businessmen began to supply fruits from Latin America, and in return, to bring American partners equipment, spare parts and even cars.

In the early 2000s, businessmen began to engage in development: they bought mansions, reconstructed them and sold them for offices. Initially, the company worked only in the market of the Northern capital, and later came to Moscow. Anatoly Kozeruk served as the general director of BVT from 2001 to 2003.

2003 radically changed the scope of the businessman: he was invited to work at Gazprom Invest Yug as an advisor to the CEO on investment issues. Anatoly Nikolayevich held this post for 10 years. As the businessman himself admits, his work at Gazprom taught him to live in a multitasking mode. The businessman took part in the construction of large facilities (factories, gas pipelines) and gained tremendous experience in managing a large team of specialists.

In 2013, Anatoly Nikolaevich joined the Board of Directors of MR Group. Now his responsibilities included finding projects worth investing in, not only commercial, but also residential real estate. Investing is carried out at the expense of banks and partners and the personal finances of a businessman. In addition, Anatoly Kozeruk owns several real estate objects with a total area of ​​more than 250 thousand square meters.
