Senior Enterprise Business Development Manager

At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious mission: to inspire and empower everyone to fight 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 product, with consumers who can buy and enjoy them at ⅓ of retail value. Too Good To Go was named in FastCompany’s March 2022 list of the World's Most Innovative Companies, and was honoured to be included in TIME’s list of the 100 Most Influential Companies of 2022.
