HelloFresh is a global food solutions group and the world's leading meal kit company, operating in 18 countries across three continents. Founded over a decade ago with the mission to change the way people eat by providing high-quality food and recipes for various meal occasions, HelloFresh has grown from its original weekly meal kit delivery service into a diverse community of customers seeking delicious, healthy, and sustainable food options. The organization includes several well-known brands such as HelloFresh, Green Chef, EveryPlate, Chefs Plate, Factor_, and Youfoodz, all dedicated to transforming the food supply chain and making meal preparation accessible, enjoyable, and environmentally friendly.

HelloFresh is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace, where individuals of all backgrounds and identities can thrive.

You will lead the transformation from static reporting towards dynamic, user-friendly platforms incorporating automation, advanced analytics, and machine learning. Acting as a key point of contact for alignment across Planning, Operations, Supply Chain, and Technology teams, you will maintain data integrity and consistency throughout the network.

In addition, you will manage and develop a high-performing team of analysts and managers, fostering a culture of ownership, accountability, and continuous learning. You will have a hands-on approach to optimize processes, identify risks and opportunities, and communicate complex data insights clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

This position offers a competitive annual salary ranging from $127,890 to $147,900, coupled with comprehensive benefits including a 401K company match, generous paid time off, health and wellness benefits with options starting at $0 monthly, substantial meal plan discounts, and access to employee resource groups. The work environment is inclusive, collaborative, fast-paced, and mission-driven, providing a unique opportunity to contribute to disrupting the traditional food supply chain and impacting how people around the world eat.
