Senior) Account Manager - Nachhaltigkeit

No previous experience in the sustainability space? Don't worry, we are happy to help you grow into an expert and thought leader at Root! This role requires presence in our Berlin office and both German and English language skills.

~31% of global GHG emissions originate from food-related activities. For the first time in history, climate performance has become an overall business performance indicator. Enterprises are mandated by regulatory bodies to disclose their climate performance, which leads to increasing pressure from investors, competitors, retailers, and consumers to prevent and reduce their CO2e emissions. Over the next 10 years, companies have set ambitious reduction targets that need to be met.

Enterprise software and new business processes can help.

We raised >€10m in funding, we launched our enterprise product, signed and onboarded some of the largest F&B players in Europe, and put together what we believe is the best-suited early stage tech team in Europe. Will you be the next to join us?
