About The Pets Table:
The Pets Table is on a mission to reimagine pet food, one bowl at a time. We believe there’s a better way to feed our good boys and girls. A way that gives every pet - the long-haired, the short-legged, and the spotted alike - a seat at the table, with healthy recipes developed with vets and made from wholesome ingredients that humans trust.

We’re a new brand within the HelloFresh Group which launched in 2023 in the US. We’re incubated within the HelloFresh Group meaning we have the space to operate as a start up whilst also having the many benefits of being part of a larger organization. We’re looking to scale rapidly, to disrupt the pet food industry and to help pawrents improve their furry family members’ wellbeing.

We’re building a strong team and culture for The Pets Table. Every new hire has the ability and is encouraged to contribute to the success of this venture as well as the culture of the team. We know that hiring the right people makes a huge difference.

So, if you’re keen to join a high growth, entrepreneurial company where you can have an impact, then look no further!
