Description du poste

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. And that has a huge impact on the health of our planet. 10% of greenhouse gas emissions come from food waste and loss.

Through our marketplace app, we connect businesses that have unsold, surplus food, with consumers who can buy and enjoy it at ⅓ of retail value. We are a certified B Corporation with a mission to empower everyone to take action against food waste. Alongside our marketplace app, we create educational tools, explore new business solutions, and influence legislation to help reduce food waste.

We’re growing fast: Our community of 133 million registered users and 261,000+ active partners across 20 countries, have together already saved 517+ million meals from going to waste - avoiding almost 1,397,000 tonnes of CO2e!

Too Good To Go was named in Fast Company’s March 2022 list of the World's Most Innovative Companies, and was honored to be included in TIME’s list of the 100 Most Influential Companies of 2022.

Your mission

The PR Manager will lead our Too Good To Go PR and communications strategy in France. The ambition is to serve as a strategic enabler of the business in France, helping to drive overall brand valuation and positive reputation externally.
To break through in today's busy working environment, ultra-cluttered agenda and media/social media environments, there is a clear advantage to company storytelling being narrative-driven versus ad-hoc and episodic, for external purposes.

Your role

• Build and implement press relation strategy in accordance with the marketing team and the Global PR strategy
• Identify opportunities to share our mission with the public (and newsjacking)
• Create company narratives that showcase our purpose, values and growth levers, taking into consideration mission, ambitions, industry trends, product beats and cultural moments with the help of the Global PR Team
• Train & work with spokespersons locally
• Overview all media inquiries (TV, radio, web, press) and interviews/TV shoots logistics) and seize event opportunities to speak at for the spokespersons
• Analyse & report on the impact of the press relation strategy to continuously improve content and action plans
• Benchmark competition and other food-related campaigns
• Drive & manage a local PR agency
• Support the work we do on B2B Comms with Corporate business partners and Partner Marketing teams to tell Too Good To Go’s company story, rooted in our impact, purpose and values.
• Work collaboratively with the B2C campaign manager to drive campaign and have impact
• Design and execute the LinkedIn strategy for the Too Good To Go France Page
• Support and collaborate with the Public Affairs Manager

Requirements

• Experience in a similar PR role and networks in France
• Proven experience in a PR role (agency, in-house or both). Experience with an agency is highly valued
• Brilliant communication skills (verbal and written) in French and English
• The ability to translate ideas into PR tactics
• Experience running an efficient press office and driving media relations
• Excellent understanding of the French media landscape and how to make the most out of a story
• A deep interest in food waste and sustainability
• Creativity and open mindedness for new and strong narratives for a bigger impact
• Experience with influential industry events and managing speaking opportunities
• A natural ability to manage multiple stakeholders and navigate in a large global organisation
• We win together: Food waste is a big beast to fight. We believe in a #oneteam.
• We raise the bar: We always push for more. We work smart, smash barriers and elevate one another.
• We keep it simple: Our ambitions are bold but our solutions are simple.
• We build a legacy: We’re proud of the change we’re driving.
• We care: We always look out for each other. Caring is also about the way we do business. We do the right thing.
