Partner with Marketing to develop a breakthrough narrative for Square across and within seller segments and use it to shape key campaigns
Oversee customer and market analysis and ensure they are factored into Square's future product vision/portfolio.
Provide ongoing clarity to your team on Square's strategy and associated goals, and support leads in translating this into day-to-day work planning in order to inform resource prioritization. Use this to set clear success criteria for your direct reports and the full team.
