Coverflex

Work changed. Pay didn’t.

Coverflex exists to make compensation work for everyone.
Pay is still rigid, fragmented, and hard to feel.
We turn compensation into choice — one platform, one card, one app — for benefits, meal allowance, insurance and more.

Our platform is simple for HR and meaningful for employees.
We provide choice, smarter compensation tools and empowerment.

⚡ Reality Check - What Makes This Role Hard

Let’s be real - here’s what makes this role challenging:

• You’ll need to lead an operational team while also having a builder’s mindset, not a pure “management-only” profile

• You must thrive in ambiguity, proactively creating scalable workflows

• You’ll be supporting a market that is fast-moving and soon to be the largest in the company, meaning pressure, growth, and constant evolution

• The role requires strong process orientation, data-driven decision-making, and continuous optimisation

👤 You

Must-haves (evidence, not years)

• Experienced in managing people

• Strong process mindset and ability to share best practices

• Adaptability in a fast-changing environment

• Data-driven decision-making

• Fluency in Italian & English

Nice-to-have

• Experience in customer support

• Familiarity with ticketing systems

🧬 Your DNA

• Resilience: You stay grounded under pressure and adapt quickly to fast-changing contexts

• Analytical Thinking: You base decisions on data, patterns, and evidence — not intuition alone

• Proactivity: You anticipate needs, take initiative, and drive improvements without being prompted

• Cultural Alignment: You naturally embody Coverflex’s values, mindset, and collaborative spirit

• Challenger Mindset: You question assumptions, challenge the status quo, and seek better ways of working
  

• Structure-Building: You turn ambiguity into clarity by creating scalable processes and frameworks

• Tech & Automation Orientation: You leverage AI, automation, and metrics to boost efficiency, quality, and team performance

You’ll probably find this frustrating if…

• You rely on intuition rather than data

• You prefer maintaining systems rather than building them

• You avoid experimentation or structured process improvement

• You dislike cross-team collaboration, transparency, or ownership

• You resist using automation or AI in daily operations

Assessment fairness:

We actively de-bias by using structured rubrics, multiple assessors, and blind screening most of the time  (we won’t know your name, gender, or personal info until the interview stage).

No cover letter required.
Apply with your LinkedIn or upload your CV.
You may be asked a few short, relevant questions.
