Commercialization Lead

  • Full-time

Company Description

Since we first opened our doors in 2009, the world of commerce has evolved immensely – and so has Square. After enabling anyone to take a payment and never miss a sale, we saw sellers stymied by disparate, outmoded products and tools that wouldn’t work together. So we expanded into software and started building integrated, omnichannel solutions – to help sellers sell online, manage inventory, run a busy kitchen, book appointments, engage loyal buyers, and hire and pay staff. And across it all, we’ve embedded financial services tools at the point of sale, so merchants can access a business loan and manage their cash flow all in one place.

Today, we’re a partner to sellers of all sizes – large, enterprise-scale businesses with complex commerce operations, sellers just starting out, as well as merchants who began selling with Square and have grown larger over time. As our sellers scale, so do our solutions. We all grow together.

There is a massive opportunity in front of us. We’re building a business that is big, meaningful, and lasting. And we are helping sellers around the world do the same.

Job Description

You will be starting the Commercialization team within our Seller Experience organization.

As the Commercialization Lead, you will partner with teams across Square, while leaning on your expertise in pricing, packaging, and product-led sales, to help deliver solutions that deliver progressively more value to sellers and are easier for sellers to understand. You will develop scalable systems that help us to connect our various growth engines (marketing, product, and sales) into one seamless buying experience for our sellers and Square employees. You’ll work cross-functionally with sales, finance, product marketing, marketing, product teams, and Square leadership to deliver high impact projects within your scope.

    • Sales-led: enact discounting (product-level and product mix) and approvals structure; define upsell paths and processes based on customer journey; pricing sales enablement for sizing/estimations and deal structure; demystify pricing with calculators

    • Product-led sales: define PQLs and sales processes and engagement for PQL to paid conversion

  • Partner with product teams to construct and implement vertical pricing & packaging strategies by running customer research to determine value, willingness-to-pay, competitor pricing & packaging, and product financial modeling

  • Partner with sales to experiment with price elasticity and other advanced empirical approaches for determination of optimal pricing

  • Influence product roadmaps based on pricing feedback loop (pricing research and analytics)

  • Partner with product marketing to articulate value proposition of vertical product offerings and pricing

Required Qualifications
