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 111 million registered users and 244,000 active partners across 19 countries, have together already saved 439 million meals from going to waste - avoiding almost 1.186,000 tonnes of CO2e!

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.

• Data Analytics Business Partner: Key collaborator on analytical and more technical requests within the region

We’re looking for:

• Significant work experience with demonstrated success in high-performance cultures (whether in consulting, investment banking, or strategy or operations at a high-growth marketplace/technology company)
• Proven track record of successfully leading complex projects, owning revenue or growth goals, and working cross-functionally in a fast-moving environment
• Strong problem-solving and critical thinking skills
• Ownership mindset and proactive attitude to find and implement solutions for complex issues
• Ability to build deep, trust-based relationships and collaborate with local and global stakeholders across departments
• Inspiring, engaging, and motivating communicator – in person and online
