    About Damex

    As a young, innovative, and regulated company that promotes healthy living and engages in creating and participating in social projects through our financial ecosystem, we have always sought people who fit into our team. We like to lead by example, so we have a staff that combines the enthusiasm of new generations and the desire to grow in the sector with the experience of those who have been in it for many years and can guide them and take us as high as possible. We’re not just looking to create a workforce; our goal is to build a team where everyone seeks to grow with a common goal: to improve our company a little more each day. That’s why we create team-building days where we bring together different departments with various activities that make them work together. We are proud of what we are, what we want to be, and how we want to get there. Our culture is clear: step by step, as a team, reaching as high as we can, without forgetting how important it is to enjoy every moment of the journey. How employees collaborate As a small yet globally connected team, we firmly believe in the power of face-to-face collaboration. That’s why we gather everyone at our HQ in Gibraltar twice a year. It’s not just about swapping ideas in the office – we take the party outdoors! Sunny beach days, fierce volleyball showdowns. And sometimes even a little salsa! By mixing work with play, we’re not just building a business; we’re crafting unforgettable memories and forging bonds that last a lifetime. A positive vision for the future We’re diving headfirst into the realm of tokenization, which we believe holds the key to tomorrow’s successes. With a diverse array of verticals and products in ecosystem, we’ve laid out our roadmap for all to see – internally and externally, across our social channels. Transparency is our guiding principle, ensuring that everyone is on board and fully grasps our bright vision ahead. How values are demonstrated We’re big believers in the DamFam and proudly embodying our Damexian culture. It’s not just about being colleagues; we’ve built real, lasting friendships here. Outside the office, you’ll often find us catching a basketball game together (with some of us as players), jamming out at music events (where a few of us might even be performing), or just chilling at each other’s homes (with some of us showing off our cooking skills or tending to our egg farms). These moments outside work are what truly strengthen our connection as Damexians. Our team’s vibrant energy radiates through our consistent positivity, evident in the results of our latest engagement survey. As for opportunities, while Gibraltar may be geographically small, the possibilities within Damex are boundless and extend worldwide. With teams spread across Gibraltar, Spain, Malta, Lithuania, and the Isle of Man, our reach knows no bounds. How employees are respected We prioritise respect and inclusivity across our company by implementing various initiatives. Firstly, we conduct Engagement Surveys to gain insights into our employees’ thoughts and feelings, ensuring all voices are heard and ideas are valued. Additionally, we actively promote psychological safety within the team, encouraging open communication and participation. Our bi-weekly all-hands meetings provide a platform for team members to engage directly with the CEO and founders, ensures a close-knit environment. Furthermore, staff are encouraged to showcase their projects and seek feedback from their peers. Most importantly, we aim to celebrate the unique qualities of our team members, encouraging them to bring their authentic selves to work. How employees are supported At Damex, we empower our team to reach their professional and personal goals by promoting work-life balance through flexible schedules, wellness initiatives, and family-friendly policies. Our inclusive culture values open communication and diversity, offering an environment where every voice is heard and respected. We are dedicated to providing the support and resources necessary for our employees to pursue their aspirations, ensuring their success and fulfilment in all aspects of their lives. We understand that we all have different interests and hobbies outside of Damex and what to encourage an openness and curiosity around this. Our CPO quotes herself an astrologer and can often be found giving birthchart readings which should send the signal to all our employees, you really can be whoever you want to be at Damex and its encouraged! How leadership demonstrates values Many years ago, a 10-year-old boy went to see a professional basketball game near his home that changed his life. It inspired him to become a professional basketball player. Being a basketball player earned him a scholarship to attend college, which helped him to create a company called Damex. Today, that boy is our CEO, and he wants to replicate that story and create that impact on young kids by promoting a culture of healthy living, job opportunities, and a healthy work environment. That’s why, in addition to being our CEO, he is the president of Damex Udea, a professional basketball club where, thanks to the partnerships he has created among cities in the area, it has over 700 children involved. He has also linked this to the Damex ecosystem, creating job opportunities and social projects that help make his story an example for many children to achieve their dreams. Programs and practices To promote physical and mental well-being, our FTE employees receive a complimentary gym membership and have access to wellbeing speakers, coaches and trainers. Our flexible work arrangements include options for working from home and remote working flexibility, enabling employees to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Furthermore, individuals have the opportunity to travel to our other offices and attend conferences, allowing collaboration and professional development on a global scale. We are also in the process of fully embracing the charity work we do throughout the business and building this in to our ecosystem. We will be offering 2 volunteering days per year across all our sites. The initiative is called ‘Charity Starts at Home’, which is a nod to our family values, staff can choose which charity and local community they would like to help. Benefits Some of the unique benefits and compensation offerings at Damex include the Damex Token, an innovative incentive program that rewards outstanding performance and contributions. Employees also enjoy an annual Christmas bonus, providing extra financial support during the holiday season. Additionally, we offer equity options, allowing team members to share in the company’s success and growth. Pandemic response Our ‘mother’ship HQ is in Gibraltar, it is the hub we all come back to, our mecca…But we also offer sites in Lithuania, Malta, Spain (Algeciras) and newly Isle of Man, we are also looking to expand to LATAM where some of our tech team already sits. We are truly Hybrid because we understand that in this modern world, post covid people need the flexibility to travel to see family and friends with a new level of freedom and whilst managing workload. We trust our people to deliver good work, conscientiously and in return we offer flexibility where we can.
