We empower a new generation of ecommerce entrepreneurs to share their creativity worldwide while embracing local, sustainable production. By producing locally and perfectly matching supply with demand, we eliminate waste and reduce carbon emissions.

At Gelato, we don’t own production facilities – we build the software that connects them. With over 140 production partners in 32 countries, our network can deliver custom products to five billion people in just 72 hours. It’s smarter, faster, and greener.

With GelatoConnect, our SaaS platform, we’re driving innovation in print production.

By boosting efficiency and cutting costs, it helps businesses scale to meet market demands. With GelatoConnect, we’re reshaping the print industry to be more efficient, sustainable, and profitable.

What you’ll be doing

Reporting directly to the Founder & CEO, Henrik Muller-Hansen and working closely with the Gelato leadership team, you will support the day-to-day activities of the CEO. You will be driving the business and implementing change, ensuring that what is agreed upon is actually delivered, interacting with senior leaders and with external stakeholders, including customers, strategic partners, and investors. You will be at the core of the strategic agenda, participating in strategy meetings, contributing to the preparation materials and following up on decisions related to the board. You will also gain hands-on operational experience across all functions, for example supporting marketing, growth initiatives, customer engagements, making business cases, leading projects, and product management. In other words, you will get a unique education of entrepreneurship and deep insight into what it means to build, lead, and scale a global technology company that is growing exponentially.

The expected tenure in this position is 12-18 months. Upon completion, we will work together and identify the relevant leadership position in Gelato.

Who you are

To be successful as a Business Manager in the CEO\'s Office, you should have attention to detail and promptly identify problems coupled with solutions. Candidates should showcase great leadership abilities, grit, tenacity, strong interpersonal skills, as well as relentless energy in problem-solving. Stellar achievements in for example a sport at globally competitive levels or in special operations units in the military are experiences that we search for and value.

We are looking for a person who is curious, has an interest in business, people, and the global community, and is able to get acquainted with new situations quickly. You should be self-driven and actively seek to take part in something that is probably best described as climbing Mount Everest over and over again. You not only enjoy challenges but you actively search for them. You have exceptional analytical skills, and have natural entrepreneurial tendencies.

We would like to see evidence of the following when reviewing your background:

  • 5+ years of work experience from a leading global company
  • A strong intellectual curiosity and aptitude for emerging technologies, particularly artificial intelligence
  • Master\'s degree and/or MBA in business, economics from a leading institution
  • Sport or military achievements are something that we value highly
  • A creative and analytical mindset
  • A positive attitude and never-ending appetite for learning more
  • Resilience, drive and ability to thrive in an entrepreneurial environment
  • Excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal skills

What it’s like to work at Gelato

We are a customer-obsessed team with the ambition to change the world by connecting technology to the printing industry and making it more sustainable. Everyone who joins our team must feel genuinely intrigued and motivated by our mission.

We expect a lot. We are a driven team with big goals, so we seek individuals who are genuinely passionate about their work and possess an entrepreneurial spirit. Our culture is unique and we live by our values, so it\'s worth learning more about our culture and how we work before presenting your application.
