A better internet, where privacy is the default, is possible. Building this better internet might seem daunting or even unthinkable, but at Proton, this is what we do every day.

Proton was founded in 2014 by a group of scientists who met at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). Our first product, Proton Mail, is now the world’s largest encrypted email service. Subsequent Proton products, such as Proton VPN, Proton Calendar, and Proton Drive, give our users full control over how and with whom their data is shared.

Today, Proton makes privacy universally accessible. Journalists from outlets like The Guardian and The New York Times, some of the world’s largest organizations, and people in more than 180 countries have signed up for over 70 million accounts. Our diverse and dynamic team is made up of more than 400 members representing over 40 different nationalities. While we are based in Geneva, Switzerland, we have offices in Zurich, Prague, London, Vilnius, Skopje, Taipei, and many more employees working remotely around the world.

Join one of Europe’s fastest-growing companies to help us solve challenging problems and build new products that will reach hundreds of millions of people. We want to create more than just one of the world’s most impactful tech companies; we want to create a new internet that serves the interests of all people. We need you, your voice, your ideas, and your ambition to make it happen.

Purpose of the role

We are seeking a self-starting and experienced General Manager to lead our Inbox Business Unit. As a GM, you will be accountable for the strategy, the execution and the financial results of the BU.

  8. Monitor and analyze key performance metrics of the organization, making data-driven decisions to optimize product performance and revenue.
  9. Manage the financial performance of the Inbox Product Business Unit, including budgeting and forecasting. Oversee day-to-day operations, and ensure cost-effective resource allocation to maximize the quality and velocity of the delivery.
  10. Align on roadmap priorities with key cross-functional stakeholders, including direct and centralized teams of engineers, growth, product and marketing experts.
  11. Lead, inspire, mentor and grow a Business Unit across all seniority levels. Impress a culture of ownership and high-velocity delivery across the whole organization.

Job requirements
