Data Analytics Business Partner

Tokyo Prefecture, Japan

At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious mission: to inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste together.

More than ⅓  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 leading marketplace app, we connect businesses that have surplus unsold food stock, with consumers who can purchase and enjoy it at only ⅓ of the retail value. We are a certified B Corporation with the mission to empower everyone to take action against global food waste. Alongside our app, we also create educational tools, explore new business solutions, and influence legislation to help reduce food waste.

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!

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1

Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
