Partner Growth Specialist / 12-month contract

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 84 million registered users and 208,000 active partners across 17 countries, have together already saved 283 million meals from going to waste - saving almost 707,000 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.

For our stores, it translates into providing not only a great digital solution but also delivering the greatest experience possible thanks to a best-in-class customer service, an inspiring store journey, and a recognized expertise. It also means making our stores successful and more autonomous through education about food waste. With a rapidly growing number of stores, the challenge is greater every day. That is why we need the hunger and experience of a Partner Growth Specialist to join our Milan office !This is a temporary 12-month contract
