Full 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, 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.
The Role
Square is looking for a Senior Creative Strategist to independently lead creative and content strategy for a defined growth portfolio within Demand Generation. You’ll own initiatives from audience insight and strategic planning through development, launch, experimentation, and optimization across paid and unpaid experiences.
This senior individual contributor role combines marketing, creative strategy, content development, and experimentation. You’ll translate business priorities, audience insights, product messaging, and performance data into programs that drive consideration, acquisition, and conversion. Your scope will connect mid- and lower-funnel creative with corresponding landing pages and content experiences.
Our creative model is increasingly self-serve and AI-enabled. You’ll identify what we should build and test, develop messaging and creative hypotheses, and choose the right approach to delivery—creating directly with self-serve tools or leading creative and technical partners. Your work may include ads, SEO-informed website content, educational resources, and interactive tools such as calculators that help sellers evaluate Square and take action.
You’ll co-develop the broader DG creative and content tactical plan with the Creative & Optimization Strategy Lead and cross-functional partners, then take independent ownership of agreed portfolios and initiatives. You’ll become a subject matter expert on your audiences and acquisition journey, working across channels and influencing partners without relying on formal reporting authority.
