Operations AssistantAbout Win-WinAt Win-Win, we’re creating cocoa-free chocolate alternatives that will revolutionise chocolate for a sustainable, ethical, and delicious future — delivering bold flavours, affordability, and consistency without compromising people or the planet. Why? We all love chocolate, but the way it’s currently produced isn’t sustainable. Climate change is leading to reduced yields, causing spiralling prices and supply-chain uncertainty. As consumers, we’re already seeing the impact of this in the form of rising prices and shrinkflation, and the cacao industry continues to be troubled by issues relating to deforestation and child labour. Win-Win cocoa free chocolate alternatives are made using abundant, affordable and sustainable plant-based ingredients such as rice and carob. Win-Win has re-imagined the conventional fermentation process to achieve the same results without the need for cocoa, but utilising traditional chocolate crafting techniques, such as roasting, grinding, refining and tempering to achieve their delicious chocolate-alternative. Win-Win’s products use 80% less water, emit 82% fewer CO2e emissions and are produced at scale in the UK.Win-Win products look, melt, taste and snap just like the chocolate we all love. Its unique qualities mean customers can use Win-Win as a direct replacement to chocolate, without the need for any additional equipment or training. Win-Win’s products come in meltable button and liquid format, and can be used to make a range of sweet treats at scale, including pastries, cakes, cookies, coatings, doughnuts, desserts and more.The roleWe are looking for an operations assistant to help with the day-to-day operations as we sell our cocoa-free chocolate and scale across the world.
