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.
