Cash App is the fastest growing financial brand in the world. Initially built to take the pain out of peer-to-peer payments, Cash App has gone from a simple product with a single purpose to a dynamic app with over 36 million monthly active users. We are bringing a better way to send, spend, invest, and save to anyone who has ever sought an alternative to the traditional banking system. 

Loved by customers and pop culture, we’ve consistently held the top spot for finance in the App Store for many years, seeing more engagement with millions of followers across social media in a day than most brands see in a year. We are building an ecosystem to redefine the world’s relationship with money by making it universally accessible.

We want to hire the best talent regardless of location. Our employment model is distributed, offering the opportunity to collaborate with teams across the world in San Francisco, New York, St. Louis, Portland, Toronto, Kitchener-Waterloo, Sydney, and Melbourne. We want to be more than a member of the community where we operate, we want to be a foundational partner that gives back through opportunities through private and public partnerships. 

As the Community Partnerships Lead, you’ll be a member of the Talent organization to design and build a program intended to create career pathways through apprenticeships for both individuals internal and external to Square. Our goal is to build an environment where people have what they need to grow and succeed without compromising who they are.
