• Introduce modern food concepts such as plant-forward options, flexible pricing models, and digital ordering systems.
• Drive continuous innovation together with local teams and suppliers.

Health, well-being, and sustainability

• Position food as a key component of employee health and well-being.
• Define and track measurable targets for healthy eating, food waste reduction, and sustainable sourcing.
• Partner with ESG teams to align with company-wide sustainability commitments.

Financial ownership

• Manage the global food budget and take full responsibility for P&L.
• Define and control cost per employee, subsidy levels, and vendor pricing structures.
• Continuously optimize the balance between quality, cost, and employee satisfaction.

Data and analytics

• Build and own a data-driven approach to food services.
• Track consumption patterns, satisfaction, and waste metrics.
• Use insights to optimize menus, pricing, and vendor performance.

Cross-team collaboration and stakeholder engagement

• Partner with the Global Workplace, HR, Finance, ESG, Facilities, and Office Management teams.
• Integrate food services into broader employee experience and benefits programs.
• Build strong relationships with internal stakeholders and external partners.

Employer brand and culture

• Position food as an integral part of the JetBrains employee experience.
• Support office tours, hiring events, and internal initiatives through high-quality food programs.
