Are you excited about sales? Do you get energy from working with great colleagues in a social impact company with a higher purpose? Do you want to learn all about how to sell over the phone, from the first cold call all the way through to onboarding and post sale?

In this role you will spend 90% of your time on the phone convincing stores to get onboard and save food with us. We will help you develop all the skills you’ll need to be successful. The most important thing we are looking for as a Sales Specialist at Too Good To Go is your energy, drive and humble approach to others - the rest we can teach you!

Come join us on a mission to end food waste, one meal at a time. Read more below and apply in minutes.

In this role, you are the first point of contact for the store and will be responsible for the full sales cycle. Going through a list of leads we provide you, you will make a minimum of 40 calls per day through proactive business development - the rest of the job is about onboarding stores and ensuring a good pipeline management of leads for the business.

In short, you will:

• Cold call new prospects, min. 40 calls a day to introduce and sell the value of Too Good To Go to them
• Take the stores through the signup process (which can take anywhere from 30 minutes to a few hours)
• Be responsible for the store the first 28 days of the partner journey, helping new stores use our marketplace app and other tools, ensuring they are fully informed and on boarded as a Too Good To Go partner and completing the post-sales process
• Maintain and organise a strong pipeline of opportunities through Salesforce based on the monthly leads you are given
• Join weekly meetings with the Growth team to ensure smooth transition after the 28 days and ensure that they are aware of stores ready to be handed over

Eager to learn and don’t take no for an answer?

Did you know?

More than 40% of all food produced in the world is wasted (WWF, 2021). And that has a huge impact on the health of our planet. In fact, 10% of all greenhouse gas emissions come from food waste and loss alone (WWF, 2024). That’s almost five times the total emissions from the aviation sector (UNEP, 2024).

We’re growing fast: Our community of 95 million registered users and 160,000 active partners across 18 countries, have together already saved 330 million meals from going to waste - avoiding almost 891,000 tonnes of CO2e from entering the Earth’s atmosphere!
