At Bending Spoons, we’re striving to build one of the all-time great companies. A company that serves a huge number of customers. A company where team members grow to their full potential. A company that functions at unparalleled levels of effectiveness and efficiency. A company that creates value for shareowners at an extraordinary rate. And a company that does so while adhering to high ethical standards.

To achieve this objective, we execute the following strategy: First, we acquire a digital business with untapped potential and make it as successful as we can by leveraging our platform—which comprises our expertise, technologies, data, brand, talents, and company culture. Then, we invest the proceeds into making our platform more powerful, and into acquiring new businesses. This strategy sees us combine an investor’s attention to capital allocation with the hands-on approach of an operator.

For a talented, driven, and collaborative individual, working at Bending Spoons is an opportunity to learn, make an impact, and progress their career at an exceptionally high rate. That’s our promise to such a candidate.

After an intensive training period of six to twelve months, you’ll take on a leadership role—either as the sole leader or co-leader—of a business unit generating revenue in the tens of millions of dollars at a minimum, with the potential to increase your level of responsibility to the hundreds of millions over time. You’ll report directly to our CEO.

This leadership position is open to individuals with an outstanding track record of performance and growth, even without a decade of experience. We’re looking for candidates who have previously led high-performing teams, and have backgrounds in entrepreneurial ventures, investment banking, or technology. Excellent references from highly reputable professionals will be essential.

A few examples of your responsibilities

• Drive strategy. Develop and execute bold, data-informed strategies that are laser-focused on unlocking new levels of value for the company.
• Lead an outstanding team. Lead a high-performing team composed of some of the most talented professionals you’ll ever encounter. Where necessary, make tough decisions to uphold excellence.
• Operate at the sharp end of the industry. We’re one of the highest-rated employers in tech and finance, and our products have hundreds of millions of users. Our sights are set on greatness, and yours (and your team’s) must be, too.
  
  

What we look for

• Leadership. You have some years of outstanding work experience in highly challenging roles and environments, and have demonstrated exceptional performance and outlier growth in your role.
• Drive. You’re extremely ambitious in everything you do—and your initiative, effort, and tenacity match the intensity of your ambition. You feel deeply responsible for your work. You hold yourself to a high—and rising—bar.
• Reasoning ability. Given the necessary knowledge, you can solve complex problems. You think from first principles, and structure your ideas sharply. You resist the influence of biases. You identify and take care of the details that matter.
• Team spirit. You give generously and without the expectation of receiving in return. You support the best idea, not your idea. You're always happy to get your hands dirty to help your team. You’re reliable, honest, and transparent.
• Proficiency in English. You read, write, and speak proficiently in English.
  
  

What we offer

• An exceptional opportunity for growth. We go to great lengths to hire individuals of outstanding potential—then, our priority is to put them in the ideal position to thrive. Spooners in their 20s lead products worth hundreds of millions of dollars. And if you’ve got what it takes, you’ll soon be playing an essential role in major projects, too.
• Incredibly talented, entrepreneurial teams. You’ll work in small, result-oriented, autonomous teams alongside some of the brightest people in your field.
• Competitive pay and access to equity in the company. Our pay packages are designed to attract and retain top professionals. This job has a competitive, top-of-industry salary, and is reviewed every December. You can also receive some of your pay in company equity at a discounted price, thus participating in the value creation we achieve together. If relocating to Italy, you may be eligible for a 50% tax cut.
• All. These. Benefits. Flexible hours, remote working, unlimited backing for learning and training, top-of-the-market health insurance, a rich relocation package, generous parental support, and a yearly retreat to a stunning location. We help each Spooner set up the conditions to do their best work.
