Growth Product Marketing Lead, Payments

  • Full-time

Company Description

Square builds common business tools in unconventional ways so more people can start, run, and grow their businesses. When Square started, it was difficult and expensive (or just plain impossible) for some businesses to take credit cards. Square made credit card payments possible for all by turning a mobile phone into a credit card reader. Since then Square has been building an entire business toolkit of both hardware and software products including Square Capital, Square Terminal, Square Payroll, and more. We’re working to find new and better ways to help businesses succeed on their own terms—and we’re looking for people like you to help shape tomorrow at Square.

Job Description

The Payments Growth Marketing team drives scale in our payments processing volume by empowering sellers to discover, sign up for, and continue using Square. We do this by understanding our sellers' needs, and using those insights to directly define our product strategy and roadmap. We also determine product positioning and messaging, develop full-funnel growth strategies, and build acquisition campaigns to grow our business. Furthermore, we develop new product experiences to incite sellers to start and continue processing with Square. We work with multiple teams to ensure we build the right products and reach the right customers, with the right messages, through the right channels, at the right time.

  • Work with our Creative team to develop customized campaigns and creative assets for each target audience segment
