Head of Global Merchant Onboarding

Overview

Join to apply for the Head of Global Seller Onboarding role at Square .

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 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. We embedded financial services tools at the point of sale so merchants can access a business loan and manage cash flow in one place. Afterpay furthers our goal to provide omnichannel tools that unlock growth for sellers. We are building a significant, meaningful, and lasting business and helping sellers worldwide do the same.
