flatexDEGIRO, one of Europe's leading online brokerage platforms, has announced the creation of a new executive position, Chief Growth Officer (CGO), and the appointment of Dominik Beier to fill it. This strategic move underscores the company's commitment to accelerating its growth trajectory across Europe, enhancing its brand, and attracting new investor segments.
The newly created role combines growth strategy, brand leadership, and customer development at the Group level. Beier will report directly to CEO Oliver Behrens and will be responsible for further developing the Group's growth and brand strategy, as well as driving closer integration between product, customer experience, and marketing. By elevating these functions to the executive board, flatexDEGIRO is signaling a more focused approach to scaling its operations and deepening customer engagement.
The decision comes as flatexDEGIRO seeks to capitalize on significant opportunities in the European market. The company currently serves more than 3.5 million customers across 16 countries and holds over EUR 100 billion in assets under custody. In 2025, it executed more than 75 million securities transactions. With this strong foundation, the company aims to expand its reach and inspire more people to build long-term wealth through investing.
Dominik Beier brings a wealth of experience in scaling digital platforms. Most recently, he served as Chief Commercial Officer at Bitpanda, where he oversaw marketing, growth, and international expansion. Prior to that, he held positions including CEO of the Interwetten Group and senior leadership roles at Sportradar. His track record in driving growth and brand development makes him a fitting choice for this pivotal role.
Commenting on the appointment, Oliver Behrens said: "flatexDEGIRO has established a unique position in Europe. At the same time, we see significant opportunities to expand our reach, engage new customer segments, and further strengthen our market position. With Dominik, we are gaining one of Europe's most accomplished growth leaders, who has repeatedly demonstrated throughout his career how to successfully unlock exactly this kind of potential."
Dominik Beier expressed his enthusiasm: "What excites me about flatexDEGIRO is the company's tremendous potential. The Group has a unique market position in Europe, a large customer base, and an excellent foundation to inspire significantly more people to invest. I look forward to working with the team to unlock this potential and actively shape the company's next stage of development."
Beier will assume his role in January 2027. This appointment is part of a broader effort to strengthen the company's leadership team and reinforce its focus on European expansion and attracting new investor segments. As flatexDEGIRO continues to leverage its proprietary technology and multi-platform approach, including its DEGIRO, flatex, and ViTrade brands, the company is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for online investing across the continent.
