Lombardia, Milano

At Bending Spoons, we're building a people-obsessed company.

We know our future depends on our ever-growing tribe of exceptional people—so we make finding, identifying, and hiring stand-out talent a top priority.

That's where you come in.

Our efforts require a precise and logical conception of what talent is, as well as effective, methodical, and scalable strategies to identify and measure it.

Put your rationality, curiosity, and enthusiasm to work by helping us take the assessment of talent to a whole new level.

A few examples of your responsibilities

- Run research to discover the best techniques to measure talent, and develop new assessment methodologies for each stage of our recruitment process.

- Monitor our assessment processes and guide their improvement, to ensure they're accurate, scalable, enjoyable, and fair.

- Manage the creation of new tests by setting guidelines and coordinating with other Spooners.

- Implement a robust and standardized evaluation and monitoring strategy for the new tests—carefully analyzing the results to ensure we understand the tests' effectiveness and use them in the soundest way possible.

What we look for

- Tenacity.

Once you have a goal, there's no stopping you!

Failure doesn't discourage you—after every stumble, you get right back up and try again.

- Scientific and analytical approach.

You proceed by clear, logical steps, and show excellent judgment, analyzing problems from every angle.

You can confidently draw insights from data, and base your decisions on empirical evidence.

- Curiosity and initiative.

You love exploring, and are forever hunting down new opportunities and testing fresh ideas.

Rather than waiting to be told what to do, you go seek.

- Accuracy and precision.

Your attention to detail is spot-on, and you're painstakingly accurate.

- Communication skills.

You can pose questions with clarity and explain your reasoning concisely.

- Proficiency in English.

You read, write, and speak proficiently in English.

What we offer

- Make a difference.

Be the owner of your effort—from day one, you're one of the team and fully trusted to take responsibility for your tasks.

You'll have every incentive to make a major impact.

- Continuous education.

Spooners get unlimited backing for learning investments, including Italian or English lessons and things like courses, conferences, and books.

There's no permission or approval process—you're fully trusted to use the company's resources efficiently.

- People who lift up one another.

We hire for talent and leave the ego at the door.

You'll find a group of truly talented Spooners who are eager to teach their secrets and to learn.

Reciprocal support and respect is everything—you're unlikely to ever encounter a more harmonious crew.

- Unlimited time off.

Take all the time you need to be with your family or just recharge your batteries.

There's no maximum number of days off, and there isn't any kind of permission process.

We just ask that you make your vacation decisions mindfully.

- Flexible schedule.

Our regular hours are 9-6 GMT+1, but this isn't a "clock in, clock out" company.

You're fully trusted to create the right conditions for your own personal peak productivity.

We only ask that you're available to your teammates a good chunk of the day (six hours or so).

That's why it's generally best to be based somewhere with a similar time zone—between GMT-2 and GMT+3.

- Remote working.

Spend as much or as little time in our Milan office as you choose.

Many Spooners like to change up their environment and get out of the city whenever the mood strikes.

You've always got the freedom to decide where today's office is.

- Wonderful HQ.

Natural light, silent rooms, state-of-the-art hardware, fun-filled common spaces. . . the list never ends!

You'll certainly be in the right environment to do your best work.

And, when it's time to switch off, you can do that in style and comfort.

- Relocation package.

If you need to relocate for the position, we typically cover reasonable transportation and moving expenses, provide up to three months of temporary accommodation, and help you and your close family members with visa support if necessary.

- Lots.

Of.

Fun.

Our incredible People Operations team organizes awesome events, such as team games, drinks, yoga classes, parties, and regular company-wide retreats.

Recent destinations include Bali, Mauritius, and Tanzania.

- Competitive salary and stock options.

Our compensation package is highly competitive, and can grow rapidly and include stock options, depending on your performance and seniority.
