Commerce Account Executive

It all started with an idea at Block in 2013. 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 ecosystem, developing unique financial products, including Afterpay/Clearpay, to provide a better way to send, spend, invest, borrow and save to our 50+ million monthly active customers. We want to redefine the world’s relationship with money to make it more relatable, instantly available, and universally accessible.

Today, Cash App has thousands of employees working globally across office and remote locations, with a culture geared toward innovation, collaboration and impact. We’ve been a distributed team since day one, and many of our roles can be done remotely from the countries where Cash App operates. No matter the location, we tailor our experience to ensure our employees are creative, productive, and happy.

The North American Sales team at Block is responsible for driving revenue to Block’s core businesses (Afterpay & Cash App) through commerce, giving our Merchant partners access to the largest and most engaged network of next generation consumers.

We are looking for a high-energy, dynamic, and strategic Account Executive to forge and expand Block’s relationships with mid-size brands, unlocking new revenue opportunities across our expanding portfolio of payments products. You will be on the front lines of a fast-growing payments business, responsible for leading commercial negotiations, with a goal of partnering with business owners and executives of high-growth companies.

A successful candidate should thrive in a challenging, fast-paced environment, have a passion for developing client relationships, and exhibit a strong sense of ownership to win new business for Block. You will have a demonstrated ability to operate with velocity, navigate ambiguity, think strategically and operationally about business, and partner closely with cross-functional teams to launch product and commercial initiatives.

We are much more than our job descriptions - we are our energy, our ideas, our everyday drive. Here’s where you will begin…
