Sustainability Project Manager

Why we are here
Tony’s Chocolonely is committed to ending exploitation in cocoa. We are an impact company that makes chocolate, not a chocolate company that makes impact. With incredibly tasty chocolate, we lead by example, demonstrating that ethical practices and success can go hand in hand. Through Tony's Open Chain (TOC), mission allies like Albert Heijn, Ben & Jerry's, Jokolade, and Aldi have embraced a fairer, more transparent supply chain for their chocolate too.

What you will do

We are looking for a Sustainability Project Manager to join our sustainability team in Amsterdam. The main goal of this new role is to execute sustainability projects, with a focus on sustainable sourcing, carbon reduction, and social impact initiatives. You will have the opportunity to build key projects from the ground up, define new sustainability standards, and work directly with our supplier partners globally and cross-functionally. If you are an experienced project manager and want to make some serious impact in the world of chocolate, we are looking for you! You'll be part of our global Operations team and report to the Head of Sustainability.

All wrapped up

• Sustainable sourcing: Implement and follow up on sustainable sourcing policies across all our suppliers and ingredients outside of cocoa to ensure compliance. Conduct regular risk assessments, support our Procurement team in sustainable sourcing and supplier assessments, assist the Head of Sustainability in decision-making, track progress, and provide analytical insights to the team.
• Supplier engagement: Support supplier onboarding and work closely with key suppliers to co-develop improvement initiatives, share best practices, and monitor and track progress to ensure compliance and continuous improvement.
• Climate and nature projects: Support the team in carbon reduction and agriculture projects by contributing to project planning, execution, and reporting. Help integrate sustainability into wider efficiency projects in the company that deliver environmental value.
• Social impact initiatives: Initiate, design, and manage social impact projects with relevant partners to address identified risks and work closely with our Tony's Open Chain (TOC) team. Monitor and report on project outcomes, ensuring transparency, compliance, and continuous improvement.
• Internal coordination: Align efforts across departments and drive internal upskilling by organizing training sessions, leading sustainability storytelling, and organizing events to strengthen awareness and foster a culture of sustainability.
