Lovegrass is a purpose-driven food company on a mission to connect the world with Ethiopia’s ancient supergrain, teff.
We work directly with smallholder farmers in rural Ethiopia, providing seeds, training, and machinery while guaranteeing fair market access and paying more than anyone else in the country for teff. By building ethical, transparent supply chains, we create nutritious, allergen-free foods that improve health, support livelihoods, and celebrate cultural heritage.
Our range includes naturally gluten-free teff flours, breakfast cereals, snacks, and powdered drinks, bringing authentic Ethiopian ingredients into modern, convenient formats for health-conscious consumers.
We operate across Ethiopia, the UK, and the EU, and our team reflects that mix: diverse, global, and grounded. Lovegrass is a fast-moving, hands-on place to work where every role contributes to something bigger, helping to prove that what grows in Ethiopia can rise anywhere.
Lovegrass is on a mission to connect the world with the ancient Ethiopian supergrain, teff, while creating meaningful social impact at the source. They’re looking for an entrepreneurial, adaptable Head of Operations with Business Development to take charge of the UK business.
