You'll set the methodology every factory uses, hold the consolidated budget view, and be the senior owner of BPO relationships at a strategic and contractual level. This is a hands-on build-and-run role: you'll design the model and direct its rollout, under the guidance of Marie Piquemil , our Head of Operations Enablement. ➡️ What you'll do Design and own the capacity planning framework: You'll build the reference model — volume drivers, FTE requirements, BPO productive-hours — and set the forecasting cadence, templates, and definitions every factory's WFM analyst works from. Optimise the internal vs. BPO capacity mix: You'll build the system that determines the right balance of internal agents and BPO capacity to cover workload at the lowest sustainable cost and risk, across all factories. Own the global BPO budget view: You'll hold the actuals-vs-plan picture for exec reporting, interface with Finance on planning and reconciliation, and surface cross-factory cost inefficiencies invisible at the local level. Lead BPO relationships at a strategic level: You'll be the senior point of contact for BPO partners on capacity, contracts, and escalations — and define the invoice validation standard used across all factories. Enable and align factory-level WFM analysts: You'll set the standards and operating cadence for factory analysts through dotted-line governance, and run the monthly cross-factory alignment ritual covering forecast review, capacity risk, and invoice anomalies. ➡️ What we're looking for WFM leadership with BPO depth: You've got 5+ years in Workforce Management, with hands-on exposure to both BPO-managed and internal-agent capacity models. Methodology builder, not just operator: You've designed or significantly overhauled a capacity planning framework — you know what it takes to build one from scratch, not just run what's already there. BPO vendor ownership: You've managed outsourcing relationships at a contractual and strategic level — SLAs, invoicing, escalations — and held partners accountable to real standards. Influence-based leader: You're effective without direct authority — you set standards, coach local relays, and drive adoption across semi-autonomous teams who don't report to you. AI-curious: You look for ways to use AI to work faster and smarter, and you're ready to keep adapting as the role evolves with it. French and English fluency: You have a strong command of both French and English. ➡️ What we can offer you A founding mandate in a brand-new, centralized operations function — you'll help shape how it works from day one. Direct line of sight into Qonto's banking license transition , raising the bar on operational rigor as the company scales. Real autonomy over a strategic mission with executive visibility into the outcome. A seat at the table as a genuine business partner to Finance and factory leadership, not just an operator. ➡️ Your future manager Your manager will be Marie Piquemil , our Head of Operations Enablement. Her path? Marie spent five years as COO at Morning, then built and led an international CX operations team at Swile (7 people across France and Brazil, five post-merger integrations). Most recently as VP Operations at Combo, she ran RevOps, Enablement, and Data teams, drove a post-merger integration, and launched a new Payroll Business Unit from scratch. She's been an operator, a builder, and a manager of managers. What does she bring to the team? Marie has built exactly the
