Working week

Marketing Intern

On an enjoyable day, you attend a customer visit and have an appointment with one of the founders of Orbisk about food waste. In the afternoon, you work on a new marketing campaign for the latest food waste monitor.

On a less enjoyable day, you mainly perform administrative tasks within our CRM system. This is quite a job, but in the end it will lead to the emergence of new food waste warriors.

Working at Orbisk

Orbisk is a start-up with a clear mission: to make the global food system more sustainable. The start-up provides complete insights into the food flows of hospitality organizations. Orbisk does this by offering a smart camera and scale that uses image recognition to register which food is thrown away, when, and in what quantity. The customer can view this data in the dashboard, which provides insight into food wastage and can be used to reduce it.
