â Mission
Join us as Head of Growth Performance to own how Qontoâs Growth organization measures and steers performance - from planning and target-setting to measurement adoption, analysis, and team incentives.
Youâll act as Growthâs trusted business partner - helping teams understand the story behind their numbers, make faster decisions, and steer performance in the right direction. Youâll lead a team of specialized business partners, each a senior expert in their domain (acquisition, marketing, sales, partnershipsâŠ).
đ©âđ»đ§âđ»Â As a Head of Growth Performance at Qonto, you will
-
Run Growthâs performance operating rhythm: steer performance reviews (weekly, monthly, quarterly), bring a clear narrative on performance, and drive follow-ups through to action and decisions.
-
Lead strategic planning for Growth: own bottom-up budgeting and target-setting for the entire Growth department, in close partnership with Strategic Finance.
-
Design Growth compensation: build and implement variable pay plans for Sales and other Growth functions, ensuring incentives drive the right behaviors for Qontoâs P&L. Partner with HR and Finance to keep them fair and sustainable.
-
Act as the guardian of Growthâs operational measurement stack: define measurement standards across Growth and ensure adoption - from KPI definitions to attribution frameworks and reporting infrastructure.
-
Lead and develop a senior team: lead four specialists, each owning a distinct Growth perimeter. Set direction, develop careers, and raise the bar on the teamâs output and influence.
đ€ What you can expect:
-
Your work informs decisions at the top: your teamâs output drives marketing budget allocation, sales compensation design, and strategic priorities for the entire Growth department.
-
A fast start: Budget 2027 planning begins in September and runs through December. Thereâs no slow ramp - youâll be leading this exercise within your first few months, in close collaboration with Finance.
-
An AI agenda thatâs real: automating reports, business cases, and performance steering through AI is already on the roadmap. Youâll help define how it gets done.
-
A team of specialists who run their own perimeters: your direct reports are senior profiles who donât need day-to-day direction. The management challenge is developing them, not directing them.
-
New challenges every day: new markets, new products, new teams - constant change is our norm at Qonto. Youâll learn fast and grow as you help reshape how we operate.
đ€ About your future manager

At Qonto we understand that true diversity isnât just about ticking boxes on a hiring checklist. Apply regardless of the boxes you tick! Who knows? You may have the missing piece of the puzzle weâve been searching for all along.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
