We’re on a mission to become the go-to destination for students across Europe to find a trusted home away from home. We make every move simple and seamless, so students can focus on what really matters: studying, exploring, and growing in their new city.

With HousingAnywhere, Kamernet, and Studapart under our roof, we’re proud to be Europe’s largest mid-term rental platform. And we’re just getting started.

Our international teams are driven by a shared purpose: to empower students to embrace change, unlock their potential, and shape a world without borders.

You’ll find us in Rotterdam, Paris, and Cergy, working across cultures and time zones, always guided by our four core values:

• Ownership
• We are Enablers
• We are Changemakers
• We are Connectors

Your role

We seek a strategic and results-driven Head of Performance Marketing to lead all paid acquisition and growth channels across all three brands of the group: HousingAnywhere, Studapart, and Kamernet.

You’ll report directly to the VP of Marketing and lead a cross-functional team.

Your responsibilities

• Develop and own the overarching performance marketing strategy for the HousingAnywhere Group (HousingAnywhere, Kamernet, Studapart), driving user acquisition for both supply (landlords) and demand (tenants).

• Direct the group's organic growth strategy by owning the global SEO roadmap, collaborating closely with Product, Engineering, and Content teams on technical SEO, content, and link-building.
• Champion a sophisticated analytics framework, implementing advanced attribution models to accurately measure the full-funnel impact of each channel and inform strategic decisions.
• Master automation, creative testing, and personalization at scale. Identify, test, and scale new acquisition channels and growth levers beyond the current core mix.
• Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Brand, and Data teams to optimize the end-to-end user journey, drive conversion rate optimization (CRO), improve CAC, LTV, and ROAS, and test new growth opportunities.

Your profile

• 8+ years of experience in performance marketing or growth, with at least 3+ years in a leadership role managing multi-channel paid acquisition and developing high-performing teams.
• Proven track record in driving growth through paid and organic channels and scaling paid acquisition programs in B2C or marketplace environments (international experience is a plus).

• Strong analytical mindset and communication skills. You’re able to translate data into business impact.
• Deep understanding of digital marketing, attribution models and measurement frameworks to effectively assess channel performance.
