From the employer

The Role

At Square, we’re re-imagining how mid-market businesses grow. As a Senior Mid-Market Account Executive on our Mid-Market Team, you’ll bring Square’s ecosystem to new sellers across diverse industries by building, shaping, and closing your own pipeline. You’ll run sophisticated, multi-product deals from the first touch to final close — blending hunter instincts, consultative depth, and strategic execution.

If you’re an experienced closer who thrives in outbound environments, loves solving meaningful business challenges, and consistently delivers against ambitious targets — this is your role.

You Will

  • Own the full outbound sales cycle — from prospecting to negotiation to close — with mid-market merchants.
  • Build and manage a high-quality pipeline through cold outreach, social selling, targeted campaigns, and creative outbound strategies.
  • Develop multi-product solutions across Square’s ecosystem and tailor them to each merchant’s unique needs.
  • Partner with Business Development on lead flow while independently driving net-new logo acquisition.
  • Conduct high-impact discovery, demos, and negotiations with decisiveness across multi-stakeholder deals.
  • Act as a consultant and trusted advisor — seamlessly flexing across BDR, AE, and AM responsibilities when needed.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Marketing, Implementation, and Operations to deliver cohesive solutions.
  • Maintain disciplined pipeline management and forecasting accuracy in Salesforce.
  • Consistently hit and exceed revenue goals — monthly and quarterly.

You Have

  • 7+ years of full-cycle B2B sales experience with consistent quota achievement.
  • Proven success in outbound prospecting and net-new business creation (SaaS or fintech preferred), specifically within a target-account motion.
  • Experience closing complex, multi-threaded deals with longer sales cycles.
  • Ability to build a pipeline from scratch using targeted, strategic outreach.
  • Exceptional communication, presentation, and negotiation skills across phone, video, and written channels.
  • Strong consultative selling skills — diagnose business challenges and map tailored solutions.
  • A hunter’s mindset — resilient, creative, and driven to win.
  • Ability to work independently while contributing to a team-first environment.
  • Advanced proficiency with Salesforce and modern sales tools.
  • A bias towards adopting the latest technology solutions to advance your selling capacity
  • BA/BS degree or equivalent experience.
