BUX hires Delivery Hero exec Dan Zbijowski as CMO
Amsterdam based neobroker BUX has announced the appointment of Dan Zbijowski as its CMO. He will be departing Berlin-based “decacorn” and DAX listed company, Delivery Hero SE, to join BUX’s management team, leading the company’s marketing efforts, as they continue to scale across Europe.
Yorick Naeff, CEO of BUX said:
“As we continue to expand our footprint across Europe, we are ready for a new phase of explosive growth. We have reached a pivotal moment in our journey and Dan brings with him the experience of taking a scale-up to unicorn success. His deep knowledge of the steps needed to scale a new business model will be crucial as BUX aims to hit ambitious growth targets in the coming months.’’
Dan Zbijowski has 15 years of experience developing in-house, multi-disciplined teams from high-growth start-ups, with 2 successful exits. He was most recently Vice President of Marketing at Delivery Hero in Berlin.
“The BUX team’s passion to make investing more accessible and the exceptional product-market fit made joining this mission an easy choice. As interest in retail investing continues to grow in Europe, there is both an ever-increasing addressable market, and a clear customer problem in addressing financial literacy,” said Zbijowski. “Our new fractional ETF offering shows that we continue to innovate to help people take those important first steps into investing.”
The addition of Zbijowski follows an exceptional year of developments for BUX. In 2021, BUX announced an $80 million funding round which has gone towards scaling growth efforts as well as bringing in further expertise. To bolster efforts in the derivatives trading business, BUX also welcomed CEO UK, Salim Sebbata, in 2021 and Jean-Rafael Nahas, as Managing Director of Cyprus, earlier this year.
