Head of EU Sales, 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 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's mission is to empower businesses of every size to start, run, and grow. As we expand our footprint across Europe, we're hiring a strategic and hands-on Sales leader to drive our success in Ireland, Spain, and France.
This is a build-and-scale role. The foundation is in place, but we're still shaping the systems, processes, and playbooks that will enable sustainable growth. You'll be part of Square's International Sales leadership team, working closely with Marketing, Product, Finance, and Operations to connect strategy and execution across the region. We're looking for a leader who can set direction, develop talent, and execute with precision. You must be comfortable moving between long-term planning and day-to-day problem solving.
This is a key opportunity to help define the next chapter of Square's Sales organization in Europe-and to grow into a long-term leadership role within our global team. You will report to the Head of Global Sales for Square. This role is based in Dublin, Ireland - hybrid.
