Your Role

As Head of Growth, you own a 7-figure monthly budget and the growth engine behind 90% of our revenue.

  • Drive all growth initiatives across performance marketing, SEO, creative strategy, funnel optimization, website & CRO, growth analytics and lifecycle management.

  • Report directly to the CEO.

What We Offer

  • Up to €250.000 + a very significant equity package.
  • On-site in Vienna, Munich, Barcelona or London - relocation package to Vienna if needed.
  • Real ownership: you get to essentially work like an entrepreneur inside of fonio.
  • Everything you need to be successful - if you need it - you´ll get it.

What You Bring

  • You’ve scaled a company from the early days to 8/9/10+ figure ARR in a global Marketing/Growth leadership role.
  • You’ve owned a €15M+ annual marketing budget.
  • You’re highly analytical and can make fast decisions based on data.
  • You’ve successfully launched and scaled into new international markets.

Why work at fonio

  • Rapid Growth & Impact: The company is in a phase of hypergrowth (40% MoM), and employees are "still early enough that your work will genuinely shape the culture, the product, and the company." fonio.ai/en/careers
  • Culture: Described as fast, committed, and in-office by default. The team emphasizes moving fast and having fun. Most roles are Vienna-based, with the expectation of being in the office most days.
  • Remote Options: Engineering roles are fully remote (within ±3 hours of CET). For other roles, there is a temporary relocation to Vienna for onboarding (1-3 months), followed by relocation to the target market.
  • Relocation Support: The company sponsors travel and accommodation in Vienna for the onboarding period and offers full relocation support for moving to target markets.
  • Team Size: Around 40-50 people, with plans to double by the end of the year.
  • Hiring Process: A 3-4 step process: 15-minute intro call, 30-45 minute skills interview (sometimes with a case study), potentially a deeper skills or leadership interview, and a final 20-minute culture call with both founders. fonio.ai/en/careers
