Join to apply for the Chief Product Officer role at Bending Spoons

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.

To set expectations: We’re happy with the performance of each of our senior leads. Still, we have a culture of continuous improvement, in which we’re always seeking to add exceptional talent at every level.

If you believe you’ve got something unique to offer, we’d love to learn more. The full list of senior leadership jobs is as follows:

• Chief executive officer
• Chief operating officer
• Chief financial officer
• Chief marketing officer
• Chief product officer
• Chief technology officer
• Head of AI
• Head of M&A
• Head of data
• General counsel
• Head of people

No matter the specifics of the job, you’ll be responsible for the following (and a lot more):

• Driving strategy. Develop and execute strategies that are laser-focused on unlocking new levels of value for the company.
• Leading an outstanding team. Lead a high-performing team composed of some of the most talented professionals you’ll ever encounter. Make the decisions necessary to uphold excellence.
• Operating at the sharp end of the industry. We’re one of the highest-rated employers in tech and finance in Europe, 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.

• Lead one of the most successful tech companies in Europe. Bending Spoons has earned a strong reputation for its strategy, expertise, culture, and talent. As a leader, you’ll help guide a company valued at several billion toward even greater success.
• Work alongside some of the brightest minds in the field. We dedicate major effort to attracting and retaining top-tier talent, creating an environment of exceptional talent density. You'll experience firsthand just how true this is.
• 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.
