Kuznetsov started his career in 1992 as a manager in a state-public firm "ISTEK". From 1993 to 1994 he worked as a manager in JSC "Vereshchagin and K". In 1994–1998 Kuznetsov held positions of the economic, senior economist, chief economist, head of the sector, deputy head of the division, deputy director of office – head of division in Moscow Joint-Stock Bank Entrepreneurship Assistance.

In 2009 Kuznetsov joined Sibur corporation, where until 2009 he worked as deputy head of corporate policy service, and head and deputy head of representative office CJSC "SIBUR-EVROPA LTD" (Switzerland). In 2009–2011 he served as deputy general director of CJSC "SIBUR-MOTORS", and general director of Polief, a Sibur division responsible for terephthalic acid and polyethylene terephthalate production. Kuznetsov moved in November 2011 to SIBUR-PET, where he was general director until February 2014, thus leading Sibur's polyester value chain. From 2014 to 2018 he worked as director for business support in regions at Sibur and advisor to the general director in Moscow. In May – December 2018 Kuznetsov led the Sibur charity foundation – "Formula of Good Deeds".

Vladislav Kuznetsov launched his political career in 2013, when he was elected to the State Assembly of the Republic of Bashkortostan of the 5th convocation on the United Russia party list in Pribelsky regional group No.38.[2] In the State Assembly Kuznetsov was seated in the Committee on Local Self-Government, Civil Society, and Mass Media.[3]

On 9 January 2019 Kuznetsov was appointed Vice Governor of Kurgan Oblast by Governor Vadim Shumkov.[4][5][6] The position of Vice Governor was created only in November 2018, when Kurgan Oblast Duma approved the new regional Government structure.[7] Vladislav Kuznetsov worked in Kurgan Oblast for nearly 3 years and left the office of Vice Governor on 15 December 2021,[8] the position itself was abolished the following month.[9] Kuznetsov also left United Russia Kurgan regional political council and its presidium on 29 January 2022.[10]

On 4 October 2022 Lugansk People's Republic joined the Russian Federation, however, Kuznetsov retained his position in now–the regional government.
