How to Apply for Training and support coordinator

at ProVeg International

🏢 About ProVeg International

ProVeg International is a leading food awareness organization working globally to transform food systems by promoting plant-based alternatives. What makes them unique is their evidence-based approach and international network focused on creating systemic change rather than just individual behavior shifts. Someone would want to work here to contribute to meaningful environmental and ethical impact while being part of a mission-driven organization with global reach.

About This Role

This Training and Support Coordinator role involves organizing culinary training sessions for kitchen staff and coordinating educational activities across the Czech Republic. The position is impactful because you'll be directly equipping food service professionals with plant-based cooking skills, accelerating the transition toward sustainable food systems in the HORECA sector through practical, hands-on training.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might involve coordinating logistics for upcoming culinary training sessions across different Czech cities, preparing plant-based cooking presentation materials, and communicating with restaurant managers about their staff's training needs. You'd balance administrative coordination tasks with direct support for the team's educational initiatives, often while planning travel schedules for in-person training delivery.
