Block is one company built from many blocks, all united by the same purpose of economic empowerment. The blocks that form our foundational teams — People, Finance, Counsel, Hardware, Information Security, Platform Infrastructure Engineering, and more — provide support and guidance at the corporate level. They work across business groups and around the globe, spanning time zones and disciplines to develop inclusive People policies, forecast finances, give legal counsel, safeguard systems, nurture new initiatives, and more. Every challenge creates possibilities, and we need different perspectives to see them all. Bring yours to Block.

The Role

Square’s Strategic Finance team partners with our go-to-market leaders to make sure our biggest commercial decisions drive both growth and profitability. As a Senior Analyst on our Pricing & Monetization team, reporting to our Deal Desk Lead, you’ll shape how Square prices its largest partnerships, from individual deal structures to the portfolio-level targets and guardrails behind them.

You Will

• Advise on complex deals: partner cross-functionally to build custom pricing and incentive proposals for some of the most exciting brands in the world
• Set pricing guardrails: design portfolio-level pricing targets and deal-level guardrails that let teams move quickly while protecting margin
• Scale the operating model: build and refine the processes we use to price and approve large deals across many teams
• Track the market: analyze pricing trends across Square’s portfolio and the broader payments industry, and turn what you find into recommendations
• Present to leadership: turn complex models into clear recommendations for senior leaders

You Have

• Minimum of 5 years of related experience with a Bachelor’s degree; or 3 years and a Master’s degree; or a PhD without experience; or equivalent work experience.
• Advanced financial modeling skills, including building P&L and unit economics models from scratch
• Sound commercial judgment when weighing growth, margin, and risk in a deal
• Experience building trusted relationships with senior leaders and presenting analysis and recommendations that shape their decisions
• A track record of owning projects end to end, from framing the question to implementing the decision
• A habit of building repeatable systems rather than one-off answers, and comfort using AI tools to scale your work
