Now Brewing – FoodShare & Hunger Relief associate! #tobeapartner
From the beginning, Starbucks set out to be a different kind of company. One that not only celebrated coffee and the rich tradition, but that also brought a feeling of connection. We are known for developing extraordinary leaders who share this passion and are guided by their service to others.
At Starbucks, we have always believed in the importance of building a great, enduring company that balances profitability with a social conscience. We have high aspirations for the future and acquiring the right talent for our future is paramount. This company is different. We believe in being performance driven through the lens of humanity. The Environmental & Social Impact team aspires to create an equitable, resilient, and sustainable future for Starbucks communities and the planet. The FoodShare & Hunger Relief team supports this vision by helping to reduce food loss & waste while increasing equitable access to nutritious food around the world.
We are looking for a passionate and organized partner to help us support a highly matrixed, deeply passionate, global sustainability & social impact team to deliver against our 2030 targets and our overall ambition to grow our business through the lens of sustainability.
