Your mission: Build a loyal and ever-expanding client base for a product with purpose.
Since launching in 2013, Bending Spoons has served around half a billion people across the globe through our suite of cutting-edge products. Still, we’ve only just crossed the starting line on our mission to make an enduring positive impact on our customers, on our fellow Spooners, and on society at large.
We’ve just partnered with Humamy, an innovative start-up with an incredibly promising plant-based product — and the potential to shake up the food industry. We believe it has a concrete shot at impacting the fight against some of the biggest challenges facing humanity: unsustainable eating habits, animal cruelty, and climate change.
We’re committed to giving Humamy its best chance at becoming a global success. To achieve this, we’re looking for someone with an exceptional sense of ownership who’ll embrace the mission fully and help us grow the brand’s client base.
You’ll make Humamy the brand people think of when they think of eating healthy, sustainable, delicious food.

Reciprocal support and respect is everything—you’re unlikely to ever encounter a more harmonious crew. Your talent is going to blossom here.
- Lightning-fast learning. By joining a fast-growing start-up with its sights set on becoming one of the world's greatest companies in the food sector, you’ll have an unparalleled opportunity to accelerate your learning and career prospects.
- Generous 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.
- Flexible time off. Each year, full-time Humamy employees may get additional paid time off.
- Competitive compensation. Our compensation package is highly competitive, and can grow rapidly and include stock options, depending on your performance and seniority.
- Generous parental leave. One fully paid month in addition to what the law states where the employee lives for new mums, with the same additional terms also offered to dads (including for adoption). For example, in Italy we offer six months of fully paid maternity leave for women and 40 days for men.
