**About FareShare**

FareShare is the UK’s national network of charitable food redistributors, made up of 18 independent organisations. Together, we take good quality surplus food from right across the food industry and get it to almost 11,000 frontline charities and community groups. During 2020, we redistributed 113 million meals through our FareShare Regional Centres and our retail surplus model FareShare Go, reaching over 1 million people.

Hunger is a growing issue in the UK and while there is surplus food that is otherwise going to waste, we believe that this food should be used to feed people first.

The COVID19 pandemic has shone a spotlight on the issue of food insecurity in the UK and with it, FareShare’s ability to get food to vulnerable communities nationwide. We are fortunate to benefit from the support of major retailers, the media, sports ambassadors and a groundswell of public engagement. As a result, there has never been a more exciting time to join an organisation at the heart of public consciousness.

**FareShare’s Strategy & Vision**

**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 Purpose**:We are doers. We are a community. We change lives.**

**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

**Respect -** for ourselves, each other, our volunteers, our partners and our beneficiaries

**Collaboration -** it’s only by working with others that we can be stronger

**Focus -** on providing the best service possible so that we deliver and achieve the most for our clients/customers.

**The role**

This important role sits within our Supply Chain and Logistics team, responsible for processing offers of surplus food from our food partners into our network of Regional Centres and the wider community. This role is essential in ensuring that the food we are offered reaches the thousands of charities and community groups we support across the UK.
