Overview
Join to apply for the Junior office manager role at Bending Spoons.
With offices in Milan and London, we’re now looking for office managers who’ll turn these spaces into the most welcoming, efficient, and inspiring places to work.
Responsibilities
* Keep the office in top shape—clean, comfortable, and fully equipped with everything Spooners need to thrive.
* Manage daily logistics—from deliveries and supplies to catering and maintenance—ensuring everything runs like clockwork.
* Oversee access and safety—handling temporary passes, emergency procedures, and security checks with care and precision.
* Troubleshoot and resolve facilities issues quickly—maintaining seamless functionality across the workspace.
* Proactively enhance the workplace experience—spotting opportunities, challenging the status quo, and driving creative improvements.
What we look for
* 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.
* 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.
* 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.
* On-site presence. You’ll fulfill your role from the office each day, contributing in person to the team’s goals.
* 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 hire individuals of outstanding potential and place them in roles where they can thrive. Spooners in their 20s lead products worth hundreds of millions of dollars, and high performers may contribute to major projects.
* Competitive pay and access to equity in the company. Salary ranges and equity opportunities arelocation- and impact-dependent; relocation may include tax considerations where applicable.
* All. These. Benefits. Flexible hours, remote working, learning and training support, health insurance, relocation assistance, parental support, and an annual retreat.

The selection process
If you pass our screening, you’ll take on a few tests designed to assess how you approach unfamiliar problems. They can be challenging and may take several hours. If successful, you’ll be invited to interviews. We set the bar high and won’t extend an offer until we’re convinced we’ve found the right candidate.
We encourage applications from candidates who feel they could be awesome at the role, even if their CV isn’t a perfect fit.
Equality and inclusion
Bending Spoons is an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer. We consider all applicants and provide reasonable accommodations for individuals with disabilities—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.
Bending Spoons is a demanding environment. We’re ambitious and we hold ourselves—and one another—to a high standard. We may ask you to ramp up quickly, including startup-wide onboarding in Milan to help you absorb our culture, with travel and accommodation support as needed. After ramp-up, working from Milan or London, or remotely from approved countries, may be possible depending on the offer stage.
