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: 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.
Thus, our strategy sees us combine an investor's attention to capital allocation with the hands-on approach of an operator.
For a talented, driven, and collaborative individual, working at Bending Spoons is an opportunity to learn, make an impact, and progress their career at an exceptionally high rate.
That's our promise to such a candidate.
