The Role

Company Description
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 through Afterpay, 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.
Job Description
Finance & Strategy improves strategic and financial decision-making across the company. Our team's core value is trust -- we build it by making what is complex simple, and we do it with analysis that is accurate and easy-to-understand. Partners appreciate our insight and trust us to help solve difficult problems. At Block we believe that good ideas can come from anywhere. We'll look to you to help form intelligent opinions, and present your thoughts to decision makers and the executive team.
The Finance & Strategy team is looking for a Deal Desk Pricing Analyst. You will work closely with the Global Sales and Account Management teams, and play an essential part in pricing strategy, deal pricing and negotiations, and end operations.
You will:

  • Help set competitive pricing across Square's portfolio of products to best position the Sales team to successfully close deals
  • Analyze deal terms with Sales partners, advise on in-process negotiations, and propose creative solutions to optimize outcomes
  • Gather insights and monitor pricing trends, as well as perform pricing audits, to inform changes to go-forward pricing implementation and strategy
  • Approve discounts and promotions, and manage approvals for special terms and conditions
  • Lead project deliverables, including ad hoc pricing analysis, financial modeling, and performance measurement
  • Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders in a fast-paced environment


Qualifications

  • Minimum of 4 years experience in a sales analyst, pricing, or finance position
  • Proficiency in Excel (can perform complex functions). Experience with SQL is a plus
  • Excellent oral, written communication, and presentation skills
  • Ability to multitask, prioritize, and meet deadlines
  • An inquisitive work style
  • Ability to execute independently and engage with team members of all levels
  • Bachelor's Degree in Finance, Economics, Business or a related field preferred
