Global Legal Counsel

🌏 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 133 million registered users and 261,000+ active partners across 20 countries, have together already saved 517+ million meals from going to waste - avoiding over 1.4M tonnes of CO2e from entering the Earth’s atmosphere! 

⭐️ 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.
