Revolut, the global bank serving over 60 million customers across Europe and beyond, is ramping up its efforts to build its new Western Europe HQ in Paris, set to serve customers in the region.

Revolut is already advancing its plans with the recent appointment of Béatrice Cossa-Dumurgier as CEO of its Western Europe headquarters, tasked with leading this strategic hub. To support this ambitious expansion, Revolut intends to hire over 400 new employees by the end of 2029 across critical functions such as compliance, risk management, cybersecurity, internal controls, financial crime prevention, finance, legal, sales and product operations. At least 200 of these hires will be based in France, with additional roles distributed across other key Western European markets, including Spain, Portugal, Italy, Germany, and Ireland.

In parallel, approximately 600 existing Revolut employees will progressively transition to the French entity once it has been established, particularly in customer support, credit, and product functions to support the development of highly expected features, including mortgages and business loans in the region.

The ramp-up intends to begin with around 80 new hires in the first year and scale to over 400 direct roles by 2029. Combined with continued operational support from the wider group, more than 1,500 employees will be dedicated to Revolut’s French banking entity by the end of the decade.

Further leadership team executive appointments will be announced later this summer. These recruitment efforts are taking place in parallel with Revolut’s ongoing application for a banking licence in France.

Béatrice Cossa-Dumurgier, CEO of Revolut Western Europe, commented: “We’re already hard at work building our new Western Europe headquarters in Paris - and that comes with a major hiring push across the region. From France to Spain, Italy, Germany, Portugal, and Ireland, we plan to hire over 400 people by 2029 to strengthen our local operations. Western Europe is home to a massive pool of talent, and we intend to make the most of it - attracting top professionals eager to shape the future of banking and build the next generation of financial services.

Revolut is attracting top talent at scale, thanks to a strong employer brand and a commitment to career growth, flexibility, and impact. In 2024 alone, over 1.6 million people applied to join Revolut - a testament to its growing reputation as one of the most exciting places to build a career in tech and finance. The company now employs over 13,000 people globally and continues to invest in people through internal progression and mobility, with over 1,100 promotions and 6,000+ employees advancing in their professional career to new levels in 2024. Revolut also champions a hybrid working model to attract and retain top professionals from across Europe and beyond. Revolut Founder and CEO Nik Storonsky recently reaffirmed his commitment to a fully flexible working model, allowing employees to choose between working remotely or from the office.

Revolut’s investment in Paris also reflects its confidence in both France and Europe’s business environment, regulatory landscape, and rising status as a leading financial centre. This move complements Revolut’s existing European HQ in Lithuania, which continues to serve markets across the continent under ECB supervision. Together, this dual-HQ model strengthens Revolut’s ability to innovate and deliver secure, high-quality banking services to millions of customers across Europe - fuelling its mission to become the leading banking group in the region.
