Job description

Mission

At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious mission: to inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste together. More than 1/3 of all food produced in the world is wasted, which has a huge impact on our planet - 10% of greenhouse gas emissions, to be exact.

Product

Too Good To Go operates the world's largest marketplace for surplus food, where we connect food businesses with consumers who can buy and enjoy it at 50+% off retail value. Alongside our app, we create educational tools, operate an end‑to‑end surplus food management solution, and influence legislation to help reduce food waste.

Scale

We’re growing fast: Our community of 124+ million registered users and 252,000 active partners across 19 countries have together already saved 473+ million meals from going to waste – avoiding over 1,278 million tonnes of CO2e! Our partners in North America include Tim Hortons, METRO and Whole Foods Market.

Impact

We are a certified B Corp social impact company. Too Good To Go was named in Fast Company’s list of the World’s Most Innovative Companies and World Changing Ideas. We are also honoured to be included in TIME’s 100 Most Influential Companies. Most recently, we won Apple’s coveted Cultural Impact Winner.
