Sourcing Executive Specialist

The company

30% of global agricultural raw materials end up as wasted resources. In other words, 6% of our global carbon emissions are generated for nothing. That’s it. 

At Hubcycle, we are reshaping the food industry by transforming overlooked by-products into competitive ingredients. Our approach hacks conventional supply chains, demanding boldness, peak performance, pragmatism, and collaboration. However, this does not prevent us from upholding and delivering the highest food safety standards.

We act as professionals, always.


Our culture

We believe a great workplace is about working alongside exceptional people who push us forward. We cultivate a culture of excellence, ownership, and impact, ensuring that each person at Hubcycle contributes meaningfully to our mission.

This requires creativity, resilience, and a hunger to challenge the norm. We are not here to play it safe; we are here to build a company that changes how the world sources food.
We move fast. We expect excellence.
We challenge each other constantly. We don’t hide behind excuses. We don’t tolerate mediocre standards, negligence, nor carelessness.
This environment is demanding and high-impact but deeply rewarding. Let’s be clear:
Even if this sounds sexy, Hubcycle is not for everyone.

So please read on. 

Our mission

We buy what others discard.

We spot and assess agri-food by-products, turning them into high-quality, competitive & sustainable ingredients.

We’re not just avoiding waste, we’re rethinking the supply chain, creating a fully upcycled ecosystem for tomorrow’s food.

By connecting industry players to untapped resources, Hubcycle boosts circularity and food access, doing more, with less.
