About the role

Cash App and Afterpay are scaling its commerce media business in the U.S., and we're building the team that will define what it becomes. We're looking for our first dedicated ad sales hire for the Cash App Media Network — a hybrid Account Executive/Account Manager who can both win new business and grow it once it's won.

What they're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in business, marketing, communications, or related field
  • 7-10+ years of experience in programmatic advertising, spanning sales and/or account management, within a retail media network, digital publisher, agency trading desk, or DSP/SSP platform
  • A track record of both closing new business and growing existing accounts — comfortable operating across the full client lifecycle
  • Solid understanding of the programmatic ecosystem, including DSPs, SSPs, audience targeting, measurement, attribution, and brand safety
  • Strong communication and presentation skills, with the ability to influence both external partners and internal stakeholders across functions
  • Comfortable working in ambiguous, cross-functional environments and collaborating closely with Strategy & Ops, Data Science, Partnerships, Ad Ops, Product and Partner Marketing
More about this role

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 (BNPL), to provide a better way to send, spend, invest, borrow and save to our 100+ million targetable customers. We want to redefine the world’s relationship with money to make it more relatable, instantly available, and universally accessible.

Today, Cash App and Afterpay have 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.
