Own end‑to‑end US seller onboarding operations—from post‑sale handoff to go‑live—setting staffing, scheduling, quality, and performance targets for first‑party and vendor teams, and driving continuous improvement of activation, time‑to‑value, CSAT and cost‑to‑serve.
12+ years of progressive operations leadership in tech, fintech, SaaS or scaled services delivery, with experience managing multiple teams, influencing senior stakeholders, and using data‑driven insights to redesign processes and implement automation.
Effective onboarding is critical to Square’s mission of empowering merchants; this role directly impacts seller activation, speed to revenue, and overall merchant growth, fueling the company’s omnichannel commerce strategy.
A senior ops leader who thrives in ambiguous, fast‑moving environments, can build scalable operating models, lead distributed teams, and partner cross‑functionally to translate strategy into measurable US‑market results.
Since we opened our doors in 2009, the world of commerce has evolved immensely, and so has Square. After enabling anyone to take payments 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, offer buy now, pay later functionality, book appointments, engage loyal buyers, and hire and pay staff. 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 in one place. Afterpay furthers our goal to provide omnichannel tools that unlock meaningful value and growth, enabling sellers to capture the next generation shopper, increase order sizes, and compete at a larger scale.
Today, we are a partner to sellers of all sizes – large, enterprise-scale businesses with complex operations, sellers just starting, as well as merchants who began selling with Square and have grown larger over time. As our sellers grow, so do our solutions. There is a massive opportunity in front of us. We’re building a significant, meaningful, and lasting business, and we are helping sellers worldwide do the same.
Square is looking for a senior operations leader to own US seller onboarding operations across first-party and vendor-supported delivery motions. Reporting to the Head of Global Onboarding Operations, this leader will translate global onboarding strategy into US operating plans, manage multiple teams and workstreams, and drive measurable improvements in seller activation, time-to-value, service quality, workforce productivity, and cost-to-serve.
This role requires broad operational expertise, strong cross-functional influence, and the ability to make high-quality decisions in ambiguous situations. The right candidate can operate independently on significant assignments, build scalable operating mechanisms, and manage leaders responsible for day-to-day execution across a large and complex market.
Seller onboarding is one of the most important moments in the Square journey. The speed, quality, and consistency of a seller’s first experience directly shape activation, retention, satisfaction, and long-term value. This role helps ensure Square can scale onboarding globally while improving seller outcomes and operating efficiency.
