Head of Growth
Executive · 100% · Permanent · Fully remote · Zürich
Job description
The role
You'll own growth and UA across Quantum, with a hand in both what we acquire and how those businesses grow after we do.
On acquisitions, you'll help find and assess targets, get into the detail of their growth engines and work out where we can add value. Your judgement will shape what we buy, what we pay and where we put capital after the deal.
Across the portfolio, you'll set the standard for growth. This isn't a role running campaigns. You'll work through each studio's leaders: challenging strategy, removing constraints and bringing the benchmarks, experience and network no single studio could build alone.
You'll be part of the leadership team building Quantum into a leading player in the app economy.
What you'll do
Acquisitions
Work with the CEO to set our investment criteria and commercial direction for the next three years
Be the go-to expert on UA and monetisation when we assess targets
Judge where each target sits on its growth curve, and how far it can go
Spot the red flags a financial or product review would miss: platform dependency, account risk, creative fatigue, unsustainable spend, performance ceilings
Identify the growth we can unlock after the deal, and what it will take
Portfolio growth
Work with studio CEOs on growth strategy, investment plans and where to scale
Step in when a studio hits a constraint: diagnose it and bring in the right people and resources
Use portfolio data and benchmarks to spot opportunities and guide where capital goes
Spread what works across the portfolio quickly: approaches, tools, talent and lessons
Help studios hire and upgrade their growth teams, and stand up the function in newly acquired businesses
Bring AI and data into how the portfolio grows: creative testing, predictive LTV and automation
How we work
Egos stay at the door. We build as one team. Our strength comes from collective judgement, not any one person or function.
We play to win. We set high standards, move fast and hold each other to them.
No problem is too small. We're building, so nothing is someone else's job and progress matters more than hierarchy.
Lead, challenge or back. Know when to take the lead, when to push back and when to get behind someone else's expertise.
What we're looking for
A track record scaling growth and UA across multiple consumer apps or games, ideally including subscription
Experience leading growth at a multi-app or multi-studio level, not just a single title
Sharp UA fundamentals: Meta, Google, TikTok, Apple Search Ads, programmatic, MMPs (AppsFlyer, Adjust, Singular), SKAN and attribution
Strong monetisation, LTV and ASO knowledge
The commercial instinct to look at a growth engine and quickly judge whether it's real, repeatable and scalable
Experience leading and developing teams
Hands-on with AI and data: predictive modelling, AI creative and automation
A strong network across the app economy
Nice to have
Experience across several app or game categories
M&A experience in the app space, including integrating an acquired studio's growth function
Why Quantum
A real say in what we buy and how we grow it
Impact across several businesses, not one
Long-term capital behind what works
A small, senior team with no bureaucracy
About us
About Quantum
The app economy is one of the largest, most cash-generative areas of tech, and it's still fragmented. It's full of founders who have built great products but never had the capital or support to turn them into large businesses.
Quantum acquires proven, founder-led businesses in the app economy, then invests in their growth. Founders stay in charge, with a share in what comes next. We bring the capital, operating support and experienced people to help them grow faster than bootstrapping or minority investment would allow.
