Job Description
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 90+ million registered users and 215,000+ active partners across 18 countries, have together already saved 312+ million meals from going to waste - avoiding almost 843,000 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.
We are adding a Global Procurement Specialist to our team. This role will be based Paris, supporting all countries. Reporting into the Head of Planning, you will speak fluent English and French- any additional languages are a bonus!
Your Mission:
If you love food but hate food waste and want to work for a business that places its food-saving mission and customer experience at the core of each and every decision then look no further!
You will help ensure that we are able to deliver our mission, by using your exceptional levels of attention to detail and ability to juggle lots of information to keep our Buying operation running. With a customer focused mindset, you will be using our tools and systems to ensure up to date information (including pricing, ingredients, allergens) as well as ensuring system uploads happen on time, so that customers are able to help us save even more food.
Our “Too Good To Go Parcel” (Manufacturing) business is a transformative solution that enables food manufacturers to effectively reduce food waste while extracting value from surplus food. Through direct purchasing from food manufacturers, Too Good To Go carefully curates and assembles the purchased products into “Too Good To Go Parcels”, which are then offered to our users at a discount of ~50% off of original retail (including shipping costs). Sold through our existing B2C marketplace, customers can opt to have their parcel conveniently delivered to their doorstep or pick it up from a nearby location, creating a surprise element as customers unbox their Too Good To Go Parcel. Instead of allowing these products to go to waste, manufacturers significantly decrease their environmental impact, optimise their revenue by maximising the value of saved food, and enhance product visibility in the market.
We are building a global team of best-in-class, ambitious, motivated, and collaborative people who all share a desire to change the world as well as have an inherent love of food!
Key Responsibilities:
- Systems updates - ensuring all information uploaded to our systems is accurate and on time

- Managing and delivering upon any ad hoc data requests from the wider Parcels/ Manufacturing business
- Ensuring all information is passed along the chain to the Logistics Specialists
- Ensuring reports are generated accurately and issuing these to the relevant audiences
Requirements:

- A passion for the mission and for raising awareness of food waste and sustainability
- An analytical mindset - you are confident using raw data to proactively investigate trends and opportunities
