Come and join our vibrant, growing team at FareShare Sussex & Surrey. FareShare is the UK’s biggest surplus food charity and today we find ourselves on the front line of the Cost of Living Crisis. To help mitigate the huge demand on our services we are recruiting a dynamic manager who has experience in sales and account management or procurement and logistics to source regional surplus and donated food across the 3 counties from farmers to manufacturers and the catering industry to suppliers.
You will work with existing and identify new strategic partners from the food industry in our region and will be supported by our Regional Network and FareShare’s national Food Team. Together, these teams provided enough food for 128 million meals across the UK last year.
Bringing your wealth of experience and sparkling personality you will make a strong contribution to our culture of togetherness, inclusivity, respect, and passion in our mission to see no good food going to waste in Sussex and Surrey.
We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive and equitable workplace, so if you like the look of this role and even if your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with everything in the job description, we would still like to hear from you! You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
We want to be open to everyone. A diverse voice is a more powerful voice. Diversity in our people brings new viewpoints and this drives debate and creativity, which is key to success and an ability to engage new audiences. As such, we encourage applications from people who belong to groups which are often marginalised in society.
