Job description

Company Description

It all started with an idea at Block in 2013. Initially built to take the pain out of peer-to-peer payments, Cash App has gone from a simple product with a single purpose to a dynamic ecosystem, developing unique financial products, including Afterpay/Clearpay, to provide a better way to send, spend, invest, borrow and save to our 47 million monthly active customers. We want to redefine the world’s relationship with money to make it more relatable, instantly available, and universally accessible.

Today, Cash App has thousands of employees working globally across office and remote locations, with a culture geared toward innovation, collaboration and impact. We’ve been a distributed team since day one, and many of our roles can be done remotely from the countries where Cash App operates. No matter the location, we tailor our experience to ensure our employees are creative, productive, and happy.

Job Description


BizOps is short for “Business Operations”. Akin to how a Sales Operations team or Supply Chain Operations team exist to improve the performance of their associated team, BizOps works horizontally to improve the performance of the Cash App business as a whole.

BizOps engagements are referred to within Cash App as “special projects”. Special projects are temporary, high-impact engagements sponsored by a member of Cash Leadership (which span from Product to People). BizOps is typically called upon to bring structure to a complex area of work, work with the cross-functional teams with subject matter expertise needed to realize quick wins, and design and transition to a long term model that can own the area of work going forward.

Example projects in the past have included:

  • Writing requirements documents for new processes, teams, or operating models at Cash App
  • Designing metrics frameworks and piloting reporting infrastructure to track priority initiatives
  • Project managing urgent deliverables requiring tight coordination of multiple teams


Role Description

In order to scale our ability to take on more projects, we’re looking to hire an outstanding BizOps Strategy Manager who will be a senior individual contributor (IC) on the team. Given the broad range of projects BizOps is tasked to take on, successful team members usually are equipped with a multidisciplinary skillset and operate with “wide but shallow” subject matter expertise.

You will:

  • Own the end-to-end delivery of large-scoped, cross-functional projects from the analysis and research stage through implementation and execution all the way to transition and go-forward planning.
  • Work directly with members of our Cash management team to scope work, manage priorities and timelines, and if necessary, push back and manage expectations to ensure the success of the most important parts of the work
  • Work cross-functionally with teams across the Cash App org to come up with solutions to complex problems and do whatever is needed to successfully implement said solutions.

Qualifications
  • Have 8+ years of experience in fast-paced and analytical roles in growth, analytics, business operations, management consulting, or finance; preferably with experience at a high-growth tech company.
  • An ownership mindset. Meaning you proactively identify areas of workstream-sized areas of opportunity, contextualize them against the bigger picture, and can form realistic plans to execute on them. You’ve built products, teams, and/or processes from scratch.
  • Track record of leadership and self-supervision. You get work done without being told and work through ambiguity using good time management, self-prioritization, proactive unblocking, and using good judgment on when to push through vs escalate.
  • Ability to deconstruct complexity using frameworks. You can break down and organize large problems into solvable, prioritized pieces
  • Experience working through influence and building relationships. You know how to get buy in, push back on things, manage/resolve conflict with peers and leaders, and manage expectations upwards.
  • Strong project management skills. You have tools and methods to organize, track, and keep alignment on work for a large, cross functional team.
  • Strong written and oral communication skills. You have a strong ability to write or present work, often using data, to leadership level audiences
  • Strong data analytics skills. You have tools and methods to work with large data sets and find high level insights, including data set quality auditing, business modeling and statistical tests.
  • A high degree of self-awareness and coachability. You are able to seek, receive and action on feedback in an effective manner. You have the ability to recognize weaknesses and mitigate them.
  • A demonstrated history of impact at places you work. In organizations and endeavors you’ve been a part of, you leave a lasting positive impact.
