A job description is not a job ad. I cannot stress this enough. There is nothing more tiresome than to see an ad like this:

Requirements:

At least 5 years experience
Ability to make swift decisions, work through stressful situations and solve problems quickly
Deep knowledge of your area
Creativity
Ambition
etc.

Does this make you want to jump up, tell your boss you're leaving and go work for this company instead? I don't think so. This

hardly evokes an emotion, much less the feeling of wanting to uproot so much of your being and quit your job.

You have to remember that in the end of the day, that's what you want people to do. The people you want to apply are probably

being treated really well at their current job so that they won't quit. So, you have to work extra hard to attract them!

Ask questions instead of demanding

Nobody wants to read a list of your demands. If you get a lot of unqualified candidates applying, make sure you use questions to

filter them! For example, by asking how many years of experience they have, you will be able to filter the applications, and thus

save yourself from reading a lot of unqualified applications.

Focus on what you're offering

Since you've just eliminated the need to list your demands, you have a lot of space to write about your company and what you can

offer the candidate. Imagine it being a personal ad. You have to really sell the idea of working with you. Write about everything

from your lunches together, your flexible hours, free coffee in the break room, etc. When you add these things together, the

person reading the ad is going to imagine herself being there with you.

Market your company

Don't forget – job seekers are not the only ones reading your ads. Your rivals, customers and partners are probably reading them

as well. Job ads are a really good place to see how a company is doing and how generous they can be. When you're writing the ad,

make sure to imagine your biggest rival reading the ad. You're going to want to make them jealous, right?

Make sure you're not making stuff up!

So now you understand the concept of making your company sound like a great place to work. However, you have to be honest. Nothing

is worse than a candidate that is disappointed right from the start of an interview. Don't say that you offer something that you

don't.

Be honest – but be sure to mention everything that makes your workplace a great place to work.

Be concise

Don't write too much. To be brutally honest, nobody wants to read about your company for more than two minutes, so make sure that

your job ad isn't too long.

At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious goal: to inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste together. 40% of all food produced in the world is wasted. And that has a huge impact on the health of our planet, with 10% of greenhouse gas emissions coming from food waste. We’re more than an app: we are a certified B Corporation with a mission to empower everyone to take action against food waste, so alongside our marketplace app, we create educational tools, explore new business solutions - such as our Retail Technologies offering, and influence legislation to help reduce food waste. We’re growing fast: Our community of 114 million registered users and 261,000 active partners across 20 countries, have together already prevented 517+ million meals from going to waste - avoiding over 1.397.000 tonnes of CO2e! Your mission With our current scale and impact on the problem of food waste, it is vitally important that we continue to create a product that consumers love and a product that brings strong and ever-increasing value to our partners.

You will join a Product Organisation working closely with the product managers, data/insight analysts and product/UX designers responsible for driving product development on the complete Too Good To Go product portfolio.

Optional qualifications * Experience working in or adjacent to marketplaces, food, retail, logistics, payments, customer experience, growth, personalisation, or platform products. * Experience working across multiple countries, languages, cultures, or market conditions. * Experience in a high-growth scale-up or similarly fast-moving technology company. * Experience with consumer mobile apps and experimentation. * MBA or other business education, though this is not required.

Senior Product Designer, Copenhagen

Vivino•København

Join Vivino, the world's leading community-driven e-commerce platform, powered by personalisation, with over 75 million community members, as a Senior Product Designer in Copenhagen. Embrace the opportunity to shape the wine-buying experience for millions of passionate wine lovers by leveraging your expertise in digital consumer products. Your chance to create exceptional user experiences and interfaces that 75 million community members love to use As part of our Design department, you will be collaborating closely with cross-functional teams to transform Vivino's value proposition and build user confidence through technology. With a focus on strategic, insight-driven design and an eye for detail, you will continuously iterate and improve experiences that align with Vivino's brand vision. Based in Copenhagen, Denmark, and temporarily reporting to our CPO, you will work closely with our Design and Engineering team, as well as our Senior Product Managers (among other key stakeholders). As our Senior Product Designer, you will shape customer-focused product development, directly addressing our most significant strategic touchpoints across the wine journey. More specifically, you will be responsible for the following: * Lead the end-to-end design process, from ideation to execution, across new and existing features, always in service of clear user goals. * Explore, prototype, and ship new functionality, running experiments to learn quickly and improve what we build. * Create and refine product flows that strengthen the connection between free and premium users, helping them understand Vivino's value at every stage. * Translate complex data, behavioural insights, and research findings into clear, emotionally resonant, and measurable product experiences that create meaningful outcomes. * Produce high-quality wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs that communicate both technical functionality and narrative intent. * Participate in design critiques, sharing constructive feedback and helping raise the overall craft, impact, and clarity of Vivino's product design. Collaborative, valuing teamwork, constructive critique, and cross-functional alignment Success in this role means transforming our strategic focus areas into valuable user experiences. Throughout your time at Vivino, you will have shipped delightful, habit-forming experiences that increase engagement and retention. You will have moved fast through ambiguity, turning rough ideas into shipped, polished features on iOS and Android. Your care for craft and consistency will have raised design quality across teams, helping Vivino feel not just functional, but like a trusted companion for everyone who loves wine. While we prefer not to confine anyone to rigid categories, we believe you will thrive and succeed in this position if you take ownership of your work, think strategically, and build alignment through collaboration. You are user-first, designing with deep empathy and a holistic understanding of user behaviour and motivation. You are curious and excited about how AI is changing the way we build products, not just as a tool you use, but as a way to work faster and smarter. As a passionate designer, you bring clarity, emotion, and a compelling narrative to every product interaction. Furthermore, we would think you can demonstrate the following: * Experience designing consumer digital products, including shipping native iOS and Android apps. * Demonstrated success designing for complex user flows within freemium, subscription, or loyalty-based products. * A strong professional portfolio showcasing UX/UI excellence and clear evidence of measurable business or engagement impact. * Fluency in Figma and modern prototyping tools. * Familiarity with user testing, interviews, experimentation, and A/B testing — and a track record of using what you learn to inform design iteration. * Curiosity about using AI to explore ideas, prototype faster, and evolve design systems — hands-on experience designing AI-powered user experiences is a plus. Even if you do not feel you meet every single requirement listed, we encourage you to apply if you feel passionate about maintaining high design quality and consistency across platforms while actively contributing to Vivino's evolving design system. Working at Vivino Working at Vivino is challenging, fun, and rewarding. We have an incredible, multicultural, and international work culture where we take care of and look out for each other. We appreciate new ideas and encourage everyone to bring them to the table. We are not afraid to make mistakes as long as we take ownership, learn from them, and support one another in our continual improvement. We have a lot of fun at our weekly Friday bar, and Copenhagen's social committee hosts regular events. Who are we? Trusted by millions to discover and buy the right wine every time. Vivino is the world's largest online wine marketplace and most downloaded wine app, powered by a community of millions. Vivino's unique wine shopping experience leverages community data to suggest personalised wine recommendations for each user. In addition to making wine discovery fun and effortless, Vivino is the best place for wine drinkers to buy wine. The Vivino app is available for download on Android and iOS devices. We are a fast-paced, growing team with offices in San Francisco, California, and Copenhagen, Denmark. We also have teams worldwide in the UK, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, Ireland, Australia, and Hong Kong. Our team is passionate about our core purpose - to empower people everywhere to enjoy wine to the fullest. We do that every day by building technology and leveraging data that puts the power back in the hands of the consumer. We do not see wine as a commodity but as an offering of a cultural experience that was once out of reach for many but is now open to everyone.
