Group ESG Manager

At Rohlik, we’re changing how people eat and live — faster, smarter and more sustainably. As Europe’s leading online grocery platform, we serve over one million customers across major European cities and deliver millions of orders every year.
But growth alone isn’t enough. We believe the future belongs to companies that grow responsibly.

That’s why we’re looking for a Group ESG Manager who will define and lead Rohlik Group’s sustainability agenda across all five markets — embedding ESG into how we operate, decide and scale.

This is a senior, high-impact role with direct access to top leadership and real influence on how a fast-growing tech-driven company shapes its future.
