Across these programs, you’ll apply the same craft: structure trade-offs, prepare decision-ready recommendations, and run delivery through clear governance, sequencing, dependencies, and risk management. 👩‍💻🧑‍💻 **As a Growth Project Manager, you will** - **Lead complex cross-functional programs** across Growth and other high-impact growth initiatives: define scope, roadmap, sequencing, dependencies, risks, and track delivery end-to-end. - **Drive transformation by challenging operating models across teams**: go beyond coordination to understand how each function works (Sales, CRM, Channels, PMM, Brand, Ops, etc.), identify friction points and trade-offs, and help reshape ways of working to unlock execution. - **Bridge strategy and execution** by translating Growth leadership priorities into actionable project plans and coordinating with operational teams to ensure successful delivery. - **Support GLT decision-making**: frame strategic questions, prepare decision-ready recommendations (inputs, options, trade-offs), and convert decisions into clear execution mandates. - **Build and operate strong program governance**: set up steering cadence, decision logs, RASCI, escalation paths, and a clear SSOT to reduce coordination overhead and keep momentum. - **Define and monitor success metrics**: partner with Growth Performance / BI / Finance to build the right KPI frameworks and reporting rituals to steer execution and demonstrate impact. - **Drive operational excellence**: challenge our current ways of working through adoption of AI, ensure best-in-class internal communication and ensure excellent cross-team roadmap planning. 🤔 **What you can expect:** - A fast-paced, high-stakes transformation program with GLT visibility and real urgency. - High autonomy: you’ll be the single responsible lead to structure governance, drive decisions, and keep delivery on track. - Broad cross-functional scope across Growth (e.g. Sales, channels etc.) and Beyond (e.g. Product, Ops, Finance etc.) - A role that bridges strategy and execution: from trade-offs and decision memos to operating model and delivery system. 🤝 **Your future manager:** **Your future manager will be: Vincent Martin - Head of Growth Programs** - **His path?** Vincent built his expertise at the intersection of **strategy and execution**, moving into high-exposure, cross-functional roles at Qonto. He joined Qonto as a **Strategic Project Manager,** led complex cross-functional projects like the Penta Integration & Migration, Strategic Planning or the Upmarket Program. He is now a **Head of Growth Programs**, leading a team of project and program managers focusing on cross-functional strategic initiatives, organizational transformation and scaling Growth operations. 🏅 **About you** - **Experience**: 4–5+ years across consulting and/or in-house Project/Program management or Chief of staff role in tech, ideally within a scale-up or mid-sized company. - **Growth (sales & marketing) domain fluency**: strong understanding of Growth team operations, stakeholders, metrics, and execution rhythms. - **Cross-functional skills**: proven ability to lead complex, high-impact initiatives across senior stakeholders and multiple teams. - **Strategy to execution**: able to turn ambiguous business questions into clear decisions, roadmaps, governance, and execution plans. - **Analytical & structured operator**: skilled at framing problems, defining success metrics, managing trade-offs, and driving decisions with data. - **Program management & communication**: strong execution toolkit (planning, dependencies, risks, stakeholder alignment) with clear written and verbal communication. - **AI fluency**: comfortable leveraging AI tools to accelerate analysis, documentation, and decision support (prompting, synthesis, lightweight automation) with strong judgment. - **Languages**: fluent **English** required; additional European languages are a plus. *At Qonto we understand that true diversity isn't 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 we’ve been searching for all along.*
