More than one third of the food produced in the world is wasted. And that has a massive impact on the health of our planet, with 10% of greenhouse gas emissions coming from food waste.

At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious goal: To inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste together. We are the world's #1 app for fighting food waste and we work with thousands of restaurants and food retailers to make their surplus food available to local consumers. The magic of Too Good To Go has expanded rapidly across Europe, the US, and Canada, with over 300 million meals saved across our 19 countries to date.

This includes defining partner value propositions, developing go-to-market strategies (who, what, where, when, and how), driving new features and solution launches, and leading an impactful team of Go-to-Market professionals. 

You will be part of our Global Commercial team, impacting thousands of partner relationships and millions of consumers. You will report to our Chief Commercial Officer, and be expected to regularly engage with the Global Management Team, as well as commercial leaders across the company.

  • Coordinating stakeholders, measuring success, and reporting to senior management on the progress of new product introductions.
  • Working closely with the sales teams to ensure sales strategies, tools, and collateral support the selling process.
