In a bid to become the world’s first global neobank for digital nomads, bunq announces plans to grow its global headcount by 70% by the end of 2024. This move comes as 40 million people globally are choosing location-independent careers. In order to fulfill its ambitious expansion strategy, bunq now hires for a variety of roles across all of its offices and remotely as it awaits licenses to operate in the US and the UK.
bunq’s current hiring spree is centered on bolstering its commercial functions. The company is actively seeking sales and business development, product marketing, PR, affiliate marketing, and market analysis experts to drive growth. Additionally, bunq is hiring for international expansion specialists to solidify its global footprint. To ensure seamless user experiences, bunq is also recruiting for user support, development, and quality assurance roles.
True to its DNA as a bank built by digital nomads for digital nomads, bunq is offering a tailored digital nomad program for many of these positions. The program allows employees to work from anywhere in the world, with increasing flexibility the longer they work at the company. The company believes in fostering a flexible and inclusive work environment that attracts top talent from around the world. However, bunq’s commitment to community also means expanding its physical presence. The bank is hiring across all its offices, including its headquarters in Amsterdam and its locations in Sofia, Istanbul, Munich, Paris, Dublin, Madrid, London and New York City.
“bunq is laser focused on making life easy for our users. To keep our skyrocketing growth soaring, we’re looking for user-centric, entrepreneurial minds who crave growth and love a challenge”, – says Ali Niknam, founder and CEO of bunq.
The number of digital nomads globally has risen eightfold since pre-COVID (from 4.8 million people identifying as digital nomads in 2020 to 40 million people in 2023). With more and more people preferring remote work and flexible work arrangements, the total number of digital nomads worldwide is set to reach 60 million by year-end.
