Let's color the world!

We are GNT, an ambitious and innovative family business with an informal character that brings the world colour! With our BRAND EXBERRY® we are market leader in the field of coloring foods for coloring food and beverages. Our colours are 100% natural and are made from fruits, vegetables and plants. We are constantly working to renew and improve the unprecedented possibilities of colouring foods. Of course, no one in the world can produce all that beauty better than nature itself, but we are world champions when it comes to deploying the proceeds of nature. We carefully preserve all the beauty and goodness of it. As a result, we offer our customers the highest quality and reliable products. That's what motivates us every day! The main ingredients for GNT's success are our employees and their mutual cooperation. We believe in teamwork and are ready for each other, our customers, our supplier and our partners. That makes us GNT.

Due to the strong growth of our organization, we are looking for a fulltime:

Sustainability Manager

As Sustainability Manager, you will uphold GNT's sustainability leadership and drive initiatives throughout the supply chain, from the farm fields to customers. You will report to the CEO and play a key role as part of an international, cross-functional team. You will lead and inspire three direct reports, while acting as a natural connector across departments including Operations, HSE, Supply Chain, Procurement, Sales & Marketing, R&D, POI, Quality, and Finance. You will kick-start projects, foster cross-departmental collaboration, and ensure sustainability remains high on the agenda. With your strong leadership presence and networking ability, you will engage stakeholders at all levels and represent GNT externally to key customers, industry groups, and government bodies-positioning us as a recognized leader in sustainable business practices.
