Product communications manager

Join to apply for the Product communications manager 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, where team members grow to their full potential, that functions at unparalleled levels of effectiveness and efficiency, and creates value for shareholders at an extraordinary rate—all while upholding high ethical standards.

To achieve this objective, we execute the following strategy: We acquire a digital business with untapped potential and make it as successful as we can by leveraging our platform, which includes our expertise, technologies, data, brand, talent, and culture. We then invest the proceeds into making our platform more powerful and acquiring new businesses. In short, we combine capital allocation with hands‑on operational expertise.

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

A few examples of your responsibilities

• Take full ownership of the communication strategy for our products, and partner with development teams to distill their work into impactful messaging for external audiences.
• Craft compelling content—from social media posts and blog articles to in‑app messages and emails—that keeps users updated and excited about our products.
• Go beyond the written word and leverage video, visual, and multimedia formats to increase engagement, strengthen brand identity, and keep our communities informed and involved.
• Manage our presence in online communities, address questions and concerns, and strengthen the overall perception of our products and brand.
• Stay ahead of the curve by actively monitoring industry trends and best practices, regularly bringing fresh ideas to improve our messaging and brand presence.

What we look for

• Reasoning ability. Given the necessary knowledge, you can solve complex problems. You think from first principles, structure your ideas sharply, resist the influence of biases, and take care of the details that matter.
• 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 and hold yourself to a high—and rising—bar.
• Team spirit. You give generously without expecting to receive in return. You support the best idea, not your own, and are always willing to get your hands dirty to help your teammates. You’re reliable, honest, and transparent.
• Proficiency in English. You read, write, and speak proficiently in English.

What we offer

• Incredibly talented, entrepreneurial teams. You’ll work in small, result‑oriented, autonomous teams alongside some of the brightest people in your field.
• An exceptional opportunity for growth. We go to great lengths to hire individuals of outstanding potential. Spooners in their 20s lead products worth hundreds of millions of dollars, and if you’ve got what it takes, you’ll soon play an essential role in major projects, too.
• Competitive pay and access to equity in the company. Typically, we offer individuals at the start of their career a salary of £45,860 in London and €43,927 elsewhere in Europe. Compensation varies by location and impact, and grows rapidly as you gain experience and translate it into greater contributions. You can also receive part of your pay in company equity at a discounted price, thereby participating in the value creation we achieve together. Relocating to Italy may earn you a 50% tax cut.
• All. These. Benefits. Flexible hours, remote working, unlimited support 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.

Commitment & contract

Permanent or fixed‑term. Full‑time.

Location

Milan (Italy), London (UK), Madrid (Spain), Warsaw (Poland) or remote.

The selection process

If you pass our screening, we’ll ask you to take on a few tests designed to assess how you approach unfamiliar problems. They’re challenging and may take several hours to complete. If you’re successful, we’ll invite you to a series of interviews. We set the bar high and won’t extend an offer until we’re convinced we’ve found the right candidate.

Bending Spoons is an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer. We consider for employment any applicant and provide reasonable accommodations for an individual with disabilities—just let us know through this form.

Before you apply: If you’ve applied before but didn’t receive an offer, we recommend waiting at least one year before applying again.

To help you ramp up quickly and set yourself up for success, we recommend spending your first few months working from our Milan office, regardless of your long‑term work location. It’s the best way to absorb our culture and build trust with your new teammates. We’ll support you with generous travel and accommodation assistance. After that, you’re welcome to work from our offices in Milan or London, or remotely from approved countries—depending on what we agree at the offer stage.

If the role speaks to you and you’re excited to give your best, we’d love to hear from you. Apply now—we can’t wait to meet you.
