Head of CRM & Customer Value

<div class="content-intro"><p>At Bondora, our mission is simple: to make finance easy, transparent, and accessible for everyone.</p> <p>Founded in 2008, we’ve helped more than 700,000 customers across Europe borrow and invest effortlessly through our trusted digital products.</p> <p>As a rapidly growing financial technology company, we’re reaching new heights with a bold vision. We’re set to acquire a banking license, unlocking a world of possibilities for our customers. This transition will allow us to expand our lending across more EU countries and broaden our product suite to deliver even more value.</p> <p>Join us on this journey and let’s build the future of finance together!</p></div><h3><strong>What is this role about? 🚀</strong></h3> <p>As the <strong>Head of CRM & Customer Value</strong> at Bondora, you'll own how we maximise the value of our existing customer base - not just how we communicate with them.</p> <p>You'll combine <strong>customer economics, lifecycle strategy, and CRM</strong> to decide which customers to engage, when to contact them, what to offer, and how to make sure those decisions create real commercial value. You'll work closely with Finance, Credit Risk, Product, Data, Engineering, Legal, and Country teams to understand what drives customer profitability and turn that into scalable journeys, offers, and decisioning.</p> <p>This is a strategic, hands-on leadership role. You'll own the customer value model, lead CRM across activation, growth, and servicing, and help shape the next generation of personalised decisioning at Bondora, including the in-house capabilities we're building on top of Braze.</p> <p>Your impact will be measured in <strong>incremental customer value, profitability, repeat borrowing, and portfolio health</strong> — not just campaign performance.</p> <h3 class="PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer" data-section-id="10nc83v" data-start="75" data-end="110"><strong style="font-size: 14px;" data-renderer-mark="true">Your main responsibilities 🎯</strong></h3> <div> <ul> <li data-local-id="dc9f4ae08f2f" data-prosemirror-content-type="node" data-prosemirror-node-name="paragraph" data-prosemirror-node-block="true"><strong data-prosemirror-content-type="mark" data-prosemirror-mark-name="strong">Own the value of the existing customer base.</strong> Deliver quarterly targets for Active Customers, Active Balance per Customer and returning originations, measured in customer value (loan net present value, LTV12) and in volume.</li> <li data-local-id="dc9f4ae08f2f" data-prosemirror-content-type="node" data-prosemirror-node-name="paragraph" data-prosemirror-node-block="true"><strong data-prosemirror-content-type="mark" data-prosemirror-mark-name="strong">Own the customer value model with Finance and Credit Risk.</strong> Maintain the value formula: fees, net interest margin after funding cost, add-on revenue, expected loss, early repayment, cost to serve, discounting.
