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 is building a best-in-class, high-impact field sales organization, and we are looking for an exceptional Territory Account Executive — someone who consistently exceeds expectations, takes full ownership of their territory, and brings Square's mission of economic empowerment directly to the businesses that need it most.
This is a field-driven, execution-focused role designed for individuals who thrive in dynamic, demanding environments. You will spend most of your week out in the market — meeting businesses, conducting live demos, and closing deals with confidence. The pace is fast, the expectations are high, and your ability to operate strategically and decisively will determine your success.
You will serve as Square's presence and competitive advantage in one of our highest-opportunity markets — responsible for building pipeline from the ground up, elevating Square's visibility in your community, establishing high-value partnerships, and helping local businesses grow through our ecosystem of industry-leading software and hardware.
If you are motivated by impactful work, driven to outperform, and eager to join a high-performance team with high standards, this role is built for you.
You Will
- Lead your market with disciplined, in-person execution
- Spend ~80% of your week in the field — walking your territory, engaging local businesses, and driving 50–60 targeted business visits each week.
-
Run a full-cycle, self-sourced sales motion: generate leads, identify needs, deliver compelling demos, and close deals across Square's full product suite.
-
Establish yourself as the go-to Square expert in your city
- Build strong, trust-based relationships with local sellers by being present, reliable, and value-driven.
- Partner cross-functionally to ensure a seamless onboarding experience and fast time-to-value for new sellers.
-
Implement a disciplined referral strategy to turn every new customer into future opportunities.
-
Build a high-velocity pipeline from the ground up
- Develop a repeatable top-of-funnel engine through door-to-door outreach, community engagement, events, networking, and targeted partnerships.
-
Work with channel partners to generate a consistent, high-quality referral stream that grows over time.
-
Master your verticals and sell with precision
- Build deep expertise in key verticals — including restaurants, retail, and services — to diagnose challenges and position the right Square solutions.
-
Sell consultatively and competitively, staying proactive and strategic throughout the sales cycle.
-
Achieve exceptional results in a high-accountability environment
- Maintain strong operational rigor in Salesforce: track activity, manage pipeline, and forecast accurately.
- Measure performance frequently and improve continuously.
- Consistently exceed quota within a culture where high standards are the norm.
You Have
- 3+ years of sales experience in a full cycle closing role with field sales experience
- Experience exceeding sales targets, selling a diverse ecosystem of products, and closing complex deals
- Ability to drive deals independently in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
- Business development experience (e.g. hunting and cold calling)
- Since this is a field position, you must have reliable transportation and live in the market you are serving
- A collaborative and team player mentality
- Prior Salesforce experience or equivalent
Even better:
- 2+ years of payment processing OR related technology (i.e. payroll, loyalty, time management)
- 1+ years of relevant audience experience (experience working in/selling to restaurants, retailers or services based businesses)

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Account Executive Jobs at Block
Align your resume to Block's sales motion
Block's Account Executive roles focus on acquiring and expanding merchant accounts, not enterprise SaaS deals. Reframe your experience around SMB or mid-market pipeline generation, quota attainment, and payment or fintech product sales before you apply.
Confirm E-3 eligibility before targeting Block
If you hold Australian citizenship, the E-3 visa is a faster, lottery-free path compared to H-1B. Verify your degree aligns with a specialty occupation in sales or business, since USCIS requires a direct connection between your field of study and the role.
Search visa-sponsoring sales roles on Migrate Mate
Not every Account Executive opening at Block is posted with sponsorship details upfront. Use Migrate Mate to filter Block's active roles by visa type so you're only spending time on positions where H-1B or E-3 sponsorship is explicitly available.
Ask about sponsorship timing during recruiter screens
Block's recruiting process for Account Executive roles typically moves through phone screens, panel interviews, and a sales pitch exercise. Raise sponsorship requirements early in the recruiter screen, not after the final round, so both sides avoid wasted time.
Prepare a certified LCA before your start date
Your employer files a Labor Condition Application with the DOL before USCIS can process your H-1B petition. Understand that this step alone can take several weeks, so factor it into your expected start date when negotiating your offer.
Document your sales credentials for specialty occupation review
USCIS scrutinizes whether Account Executive roles qualify as specialty occupations. Gather transcripts, performance records, and any fintech or SaaS certifications that demonstrate a bachelor's-level foundation in business, marketing, or a related field is standard for the position.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Block sponsor H-1B visas for Account Executives?
Yes, Block sponsors H-1B visas for Account Executive roles. Because H-1B sponsorship for sales positions requires demonstrating specialty occupation status, Block's HR and legal teams will typically evaluate whether the specific role and your educational background meet USCIS criteria before extending a sponsorship commitment. Raising this early in the hiring process gives you the clearest picture of where you stand.
How do I apply for Account Executive jobs at Block?
Applications go through Block's careers site, where you can filter by role type and location. For the smoothest process, use Migrate Mate to identify which open Account Executive positions at Block are tied to visa sponsorship before applying, so you're not discovering sponsorship limitations after multiple interview rounds.
Which visa types does Block commonly use for Account Executive hires?
Block sponsors H-1B and E-3 visas for qualifying Account Executive hires, and supports Green Card pathways including EB-2 and EB-3 for longer-term employees. Australian citizens should prioritize the E-3 route given it has no annual lottery and operates on an independent cap, making timelines more predictable than the H-1B selection process.
What qualifications does Block expect for Account Executive roles?
Block's Account Executive openings typically target candidates with demonstrated B2B or SMB sales experience, a consistent record of meeting or exceeding quota, and familiarity with payment solutions or fintech products. A bachelor's degree in business, marketing, communications, or a related field is generally expected and also strengthens the specialty occupation argument required for H-1B or E-3 sponsorship.
How do I plan my timeline when pursuing H-1B sponsorship at Block?
If you need H-1B sponsorship, plan around the annual cap-subject filing window. USCIS opens H-1B registration in March for an October 1 start date. That means securing your offer, completing the lottery registration, and waiting for selection all need to fit within a structured annual calendar. Starting your job search at Block several months before the March window gives you the most runway.
