Field Sales Specialist

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.

In this role you will make a direct, positive contribution to our mission every day. As part of the launch team in Australia, the journey promises to be exciting as you will be part of changing the conversation around food waste in Australia and establishing the Too Good To Go brand in the minds of customers and food businesses.

We're growing fast: Our community of 124 million registered users and 252,000 active partners across 19 countries, have together already saved 470 million meals from going to waste - avoiding almost 1,278,000 tonnes of CO2e

We are culture focused and have won a number of awards to reflect this In July 2025, we were named in The Australian Best Places To Work list for small companies. In 2023, Too Good To Go was recognised on Fortune's acclaimed 'Change the World' list, named as one of Deloitte's 'Best Managed Companies' and won a coveted 'Cultural Impact Award' at the annual Apple App Store Awards. We're also thrilled to announce we were the 2025 Winner of the "Technology for Impact" Award at the 36th Banksia Foundation National Sustainability Awards.
