Commercial Working Student

At Picnic, we are changing the way people shop for groceries. We do this with our innovative and sustainable app-only service, without physical stores. The most important part of our app is of course the products. Our customers order their groceries online and cannot hold the packaging themselves before buying a product. Therefore, it is essential that all product information in our app is 100% accurate to help customers easily navigate the assortment. And that's where we need your help!
