Kirill Seleznev, whose biography is of interest to the general public for two reasons: in connection with his high official position and in connection with his famous father, is a typical representative of the "golden youth". His career rise does not give rest to journalists who are constantly trying to find compromising evidence on him. Let's talk about the work path and private life of Kirill Seleznev.

The start of the journey

Seleznev Kirill was born on April 23, 1974 in an ordinary maternity hospital in Leningrad. The boy's early years are not marked by anything remarkable, and Seleznev tries never to touch on this period in his stories about his biography. The official history of Cyril begins only from the moment he enters the university. However, there is one fact in his origin and childhood that is very attractive to journalists. This is the theme of his ancestors.

Parents

Kirill Seleznev, whose family periodically becomes the subject of journalistic investigations, categorically does not comment on anythingand does not talk about his origin. However, the middle name alone speaks volumes. Kirill is the son of a well-known in Russia, now deceased, former Chairman of the State Duma Gennady Nikolaevich Seleznev.

The politician arrived in Leningrad in the mid-60s. He came from a very simple family and made his own way. After working in a variety of places, including a turner at a factory, he enters the Leningrad University to study journalism. During the years of study, he began to move along the Komsomol line, and in 1974, after graduating from high school, he was accepted as deputy editor in chief of the popular youth magazine Smena. In 1980, he moved to Moscow, where he began working in the Central Committee of the All-Union Leninist Young Communist League, and then as the editor-in-chief in Komsomolskaya Pravda.

Further, Seleznev's path only goes up. The peak of his political career was his election to the post of speaker of the Duma in 1996. But it is interesting that in many official biographies there is no mention of Kirill Gennadievich. Only some sources call him among the heirs of the politician. The official family of Seleznev Sr. is his wife Irina Borisovna and daughter Tatyana Gennadievna.

Kirill's mother Tatyana Mironova has lived all her life in St. Petersburg, and until recently her two sons Kirill Seleznev and Andrei Mironov were registered in her apartment. Kirill does not comment on the mysterious story with his father, although journalists found a lot of evidence that already in adulthood he maintained close business relations with his parent.

Education

After school, which can not be found any mention in official biographies, Seleznev Kirill enters "Voenmeh", the B altic Technical University. The university is one of the best engineering schools in Russia, among its graduates it is enough to name such names as Sergey Naryshkin, Evgeny Afanasiev, Georgy Grechko and others. Kirill studied in the speci alty "pulse devices and automatic rotary lines." In 1997, he received a diploma of higher education.

Later, in 2002, when his professional path had already been decided, Seleznev graduated from another higher educational institution - St. Petersburg University with a degree in finance and credit.

The beginning of a career path

After graduating from the first university, Kirill Seleznev enters the position of manager at the B altic Financial Company. There he was engaged in "game" on "Forex". Having quickly understood the whole scheme of work on the resale of assets, he moves to the financial and investment company Management. Investments. Development". Here he works as an analyst, a specialist in stock transactions with securities.

A year later, he goes to work at the St. Petersburg Seaport as a chief investment specialist. But a year later, in 2000, he again changes his place of service. This time, Seleznev tries himself as the head of the tax service of the B altic Pipeline System. Here he also lasted only a year. Apparently, these frequent layoffs were related to the search for a suitable position, and soon it was found.

Gazprom

In 2001, Seleznev became an assistant to the chairman of the board of the largest raw materials company in Russia - Gazprom. From this moment begins the rapid ascent of Kirill Gennadievich up the career ladder. In 2002, he headed Gazprom's gas and liquid hydrocarbons marketing and processing service. Six months later, he is already a member of the board of the commodity giant. In 2003, he heads the Gazprommezhregiongaz subsidiary. He holds this position today, combining it with work on the boards of directors of several large companies, including Mosenergo.

Private life

Kirill Gennadievich Seleznev, a top manager whose marital status remains an interesting issue for the general public and journalists, never talks about his wife and children. Journalists suggest that he simply does not have them. Although, perhaps he was simply used to the high degree of secrecy that surrounded his privacy since childhood.
