You have:

  • At least ten years of experience working in government affairs, political campaigns, or public policy with an international role.  
  • Analytical skills related with political, social and economic matters, from a local and global agenda. An excellent and thorough understanding of the tech and digital political and regulatory conversation is essential. 
  • Strong relational capital: bringing a good network of contacts in the field would be highly valuable. 
  • A deep understanding: Glovo and other on-demand delivery companies are changing cities and the economic activity. You will need to be able to understand the potential for positive change and be an advocate of our vision. In addition, you'll need the ability to convey this message confidently and persuasively
  • Social and Communication skills that permit to adequately and effectively explain our model and its impact
  • A team player with managerial skills: Success at Glovo depends on the ability to interact with different teams (internally and externally) around shared goals.  It’s why we’re looking for well-organized people who enjoy working with others to get stuff done.
  • A self-starter:  Glovo is a company of entrepreneurs and we want to work with people who enjoy building things from the bottom up.  Things move quickly so you’ll need to be highly adaptable as well as calm under pressure
