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.

The Merchant Product Marketing team is responsible for product positioning, channel strategy and go-to-market coordination across Cash App and Afterpay’s lines of business. We work closely with Product and Sales teams to craft and launch go-to-market campaigns targeted at enterprise and mid-market customers. 

As a Senior Product Marketing Manager, you will drive the merchant-facing marketing vision for payments products across Cash App Pay and Afterpay. You will define our target audience, positioning, messaging, and campaigns. As the marketing owner, you will also identify new opportunities and launch strategic programs tailored to drive product awareness and adoption. You will advocate for our merchants and partner closely with the product and sales teams to strengthen the value proposition of our commerce products. To be successful, you’ll forge and model strong partnerships across Product, Sales, Data & Analytics, Consumer, Brand, and more.

As part of a small but rapidly growing team, you’ll have the opportunity to help build out the organization and establish the foundation of merchant product marketing at Cash App and Afterpay. As Cash App and Afterpay teams integrate, you’ll work cross-functionally to articulate a cohesive commerce narrative for our merchants using qualitative and quantitative techniques. You’ll also drive new product launch announcements and campaigns targeted toward both prospective and existing merchants. 

The ideal candidate is resourceful, creative, and results-oriented with a clear mastery of both the art and the science of product marketing.

• Regularly interface with executive leadership, product, sales and creative to gain buy-in on product marketing strategies.

• 7+ years of experience in B2B product marketing at one or more fast-growing tech companies (fintech a strong plus).
• A strong track record of spearheading product launches and marketing campaigns that drove significant business growth. 
• Highly collaborative leadership skills and a proven ability to influence and lead cross-functional teams to meet common goals and objectives.
• Strong business acumen and extensive experience with core analytical concepts like LTV and incrementality.
• Strong ability to use both qualitative and quantitative insights to set effective goals for the organization and develop compelling value props for merchants.
