At Too Good To Go, we dream of a planet with no food waste.
Imagine if there was something we could all change today that would reduce global warming by 8%. That’s how much food waste contributes to the climate crisis, and yet we continue to waste one third of all the food produced in Europe.
We’re on a mission to change this and are rapidly expanding in Belgium. Our app connecting businesses with unsold food, and consumers willing to buy at a discounted rate has grown exponentially since 2016 to become the biggest in Europe, with over 107 million users, and more than 388 million meals saved.
We’re proud of what we’ve achieved so far, and we are just at the start of the journey at our social impact company!
Your Mission:
As a Sales Specialist, you’ll identify potential partners and connect with the best food businesses (restaurants, butchers, bakeries, supermarkets a
nd many more). Every week, you will either jump on your bike, on the bus or on the train to go and convince new potential partners to join the food waste movement, or work from our awesome office in Ghent (but in 2025 we will be moving to our brand new office in Brussels) and onboard new partners on the phone.
You’ll represent and pitch Too Good To Go with clarity and passion, and show the food business owners you encounter how Too Good To Go is a win-win-win solution. You will train the partners you’ve brought on board and make sure they become top ambassadors of the food waste movement!
Are you the Sales Specialist we’re looking for?
- You’re fluent in Dutch and you are strong in English. The more languages you speak, the better! It’s a plus!
- You have experience or a strong interest in sales and/or business development
- You're a terrific talker (and a better listener)
- Perseverance is your middle name: once you’ve started working on an opportunity, you won’t stop until it is qualified and converted to a yes. Rather than sitting and waiting to see what happens, you take the bull by the horns and don’t take rejection personally.
- You jump on the opportunity to go knock on doors and pay a visit to potential new partners
- You have zero fear of the phone and have the tenacity to keep trying when things get tough
- You’re eager to learn about new ways of doing sales and other soft skills
- You’re a team player! You like to take care of your team and get inspired and motivated by your team members
- You are passionate about fighting food waste and a sustainable lifestyle
Our Values:
- We win together
- We raise the bar
- We keep it simple
- We build a legacy
- We care
If you still need more convincing…
- A unique opportunity to work in a social impact organisation (and certified B Corporation) where you get to wake up every day knowing you’re achieving positive change.
- The experience of being part of an international company with +1300 enthusiastic and highly talented waste warriors across 19 countries (and counting) – always ready to share knowledge and support.
- Strong personal as well as professional development in an intense and high growth scale-up environment.
- An open company culture where you have the independence and room to unleash your potential
- A strong team culture where successes are celebrated together.
We look forward to getting to know you!
