[Hiring] Community Marketing Manager @M13

Jul 28, 2024 - M13 is hiring a remote Community Marketing Manager. 📍Location: USA.

Bento is on a mission to eliminate food insecurity to ensure that lack of consistent access to nutritious food is no longer a barrier to one's health, happiness or pursuit of purposeful life. Over half of all adults in the US have a nutrition related chronic disease, such as diabetes, hypertension or heart disease, disproportionately impacting low income community members. Despite the best intentions of food banks, government food assistance programs and legacy disease management programs, these solutions, while necessary, have not been sufficient to eliminate this problem, which has only gotten worse, not better. As a venture-backed startup, Bento is taking a new approach.

Bento provides members with stigma-free access to convenient and nutritious food that has been curated by a team of Bento registered dietitians and sourced from trusted restaurants and grocery stores in and around our member's community. This not only closes our member’s food insecurity gap and improves their overall quality of life, but also generates the trust and consistency needed for Bento to connect and engage them with the critical healthcare resources needed to improve their health outcomes.

Recently approved by Medicaid as a medically tailored nutrition provider, Bento is rapidly expanding access to millions of eligible at-risk community members through partnerships with state and county medicaid plans.
