N26 will welcome two new additions to its leadership team as it continues to expand its leadership bench for the company’s next phase of growth

N26 announced the appointment of two key senior executives, with a new Chief People Officer and Chief Operating Officer set to join the company next month. Both roles will report directly to N26 co-founder and CFO Maximilian Tayenthal and will be based out of the company headquarters in Berlin, as the mobile banking app continues to build its senior leadership bench for the next step in its global growth journey.

Taking on the role of Chief People Officer is former Adidas executive Diana Styles, who will oversee the Employee Experience, Leadership and Organizational Development, Recruiting, Employer Brand, Rewards and People Operations divisions. With decades of experience across talent retention, leadership development, equity and inclusion and building capabilities for sustainable growth, Styles is strongly placed to build out the next chapter of growth for N26 with a passionate focus on people, talent and culture.

“N26 has been on a truly incredible journey to transform an industry as a disrupter, challenger and pioneer. Having grown its team to a 1,500-strong workforce of 80 nationalities in just five years, I’m extremely excited to further strengthen the N26 culture and talent pool and build a world-class employee experience that matches the organization’s next chapter of transformational growth and change,” said Styles.
