As the UK’s national network of charitable food redistributors. We believe that no good food should go to waste. We redistribute surplus food to charities that turn it into meals. We are doers. We are a community. We change lives
We have an excellent opportunity to join FareShare and if you feel that you would like to make a difference this may be the role for you.
About FareShare Go
FareShare and the Irish social enterprise FoodCloud have been working together since 2016 in a partnership designed to help UK retailers address the issue of edible surplus food they may have within their stores. This innovative partnership, known as FareShare Go, brings together a technology platform and FareShare’s knowledge of the UK charity food redistribution market. Using technological solutions, we connect charities with edible surplus foods from several major retail and restaurant partners across the country.
FareShare’s Strategy and Vision
Our Purpose: We are doers. We are a community. We change lives.
Vision: We have the vision of a UK where “No good food goes to waste”.
Mission: To use surplus, fit for consumption, food to feed those who are vulnerable in the UK by supporting front line charitable organisations that tackle the cause and not just the symptoms of food poverty.
Our Values:
Passion – for our cause and the challenge that lies ahead
Ambition – to go the extra mile and drive the change that must happen

Collaboration – it is only by working with others that we can be stronger

Relationship management underpins every action carried out throughout the day, be it customer, stakeholder, or colleague facing to ensure that we are providing the best possible service we can. This can take many forms, from complaint handling with our customers when there is a retailer issue, expectation management when there is a customer misunderstanding, conflict resolution between our customers and/or retailers, to ensuring that all our records are detailed, up to date and inclusive of all information needed for our colleagues to carry out their role. This team sets the standard for customer support for FareShare, acting as brand ambassadors whilst advocating for our charities and retailers alike to ensure that we achieve our mission of ensuring that suitable food reaches our communities by supporting our community partners who tackle the causes behind the symptoms of food poverty in the United Kingdom.
