ROLLER launched France in 2026 and is hiring a French-speaking AE, BDR, Solutions Engineer and onboarding manager for a market it calls "relatively Greenfield". Its best French proof is NIKITO, four Paris-area entertainment centres that left ROLLER over French fiscal compliance, came back as the first French operator once it was built, and went live in under three months. But that story is only in English, and roller.software has one French page: a demo form marked as English, with no link to the English site and an English section in the middle. A French operator searching for ticketing or POS software finds nothing from ROLLER in French.

Why it works
Build a small French site that sells what changed in 2026: a French homepage, a page on French fiscal compliance and French-language support (what the localisation squad has shipped), the NIKITO story in French with its numbers, the pricing page in euros, and French pages for the top five venue types (trampoline parks, family entertainment centres, bowling, karting, laser tag). Mark them fr-FR with hreflang to English and route every form to the French BDR.
The French sellers get pages to send, French search can find ROLLER, and the compliance question that once cost ROLLER NIKITO is answered on the site before the first call.

Evidence
- HiringFrench market hiring in London: an SMB Account Executive - EMEA (French Speaking) (posted September 24, 2026): "We have launched France in 2026 and it is going really well. You're working a market that is relatively Greenfield", working "inbound demand while partnering closely with a BDR"; a French-speaking Solutions Engineer (September 30) to "support ROLLER's growth across the French market, engaging prospects and customers in French"; a French-speaking Customer Onboarding Manager (October 1); and a French-speaking BDR who will "Swiftly respond to inbound inquiries, reducing initial response time".Source
- Customer storyNIKITO case study (September 25, 2026): four multi-attraction family entertainment centres around Paris, "Founded as the French joint venture of SkyZone". NIKITO used ROLLER from 2020, but "when French fiscal compliance requirements tightened, ROLLER's roadmap didn't yet include the necessary localizations, and NIKITO was forced to migrate away". When ROLLER confirmed "French fiscal compliance and ... full French language support in 2026", NIKITO "became the first French operator to sign", with all four venues live in under three months, "225 birthday parties hosted in a single weekend at peak" and "100% of staff prefer ROLLER". The story is published in English only.Source
- Your websiteFrench presence (checked October 21, 2026): the sitemap's 903 URLs include one French page, /fr/commencer, a demo form titled "Logiciel de gestion de site tout-en-un pour attractions". It is marked html lang="en", has no hreflang link to an English page, and still has an English section ("We support your business every step of the way"). There are no German pages. The pricing page offers a EUR currency switch.Source
