Job Description

At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious goal: to inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste together.

40% of all food produced in the world is wasted. And that has a huge impact on the health of our planet, with 10% of greenhouse gas emissions coming from food waste.

We’re growing fast: Our community of 80 million registered users and 197,000 active partners across 17 countries, have together already prevented 264+ million meals from going to waste - avoiding over 661,000 tonnes of CO2e!
