Job Description

As a Sustainability Program Manager, you will build relationships and collaborate with domestic and multinational food companies (restaurant chains, caterers, retailers, hospitality groups, and packaged good companies) to help them incorporate sustainable foods such as plant-based ingredients into their supply chain.

Globally, a growing number of companies are adopting or considering plant-based food policies and commitments as part of their sustainability initiatives. Major corporations in the hospitality, food service, and retail sectors have started to incorporate plant-based options to reduce their environmental impact. The shift is driven by increasing consumer demand for sustainable and ethical food options, along with companies' efforts to meet their ESG goals.

In this role with Lever Foundation, you will help educate more companies on the sustainability, animal welfare, and economic benefits of making this supply chain shift. You will provide industry updates, connect these companies with potential suppliers, and provide other resources to help them understand and make progress on the issue. In order to identify and engage new food companies, you will do online research, write and send emails, make calls, and conduct visits and meetings with companies.

You'll work from home and hours are highly flexible. You'll have wonderful colleagues in Asia, Europe, and the US who will work with and support you. You’ll stay in close touch with them through calls, email and messages.

Through this work you will have hands-on experience working with large food companies on corporate sustainability, with room for advancement to managerial or other positions.
