Sales Manager job in New York City

At Too Good To Go, we dream of a planet with no food waste.

Our app connecting businesses with unsold food, and consumers willing to buy at a discounted rate has grown since 2016 to become the biggest in Europe, with over 29 Million users, and more than 53 million meals saved.
