About the role

  • We are looking for a Strategic Pricing & Monetization Lead to shape how Block creates, captures, and grows value across its sales-driven channels.
  • This role will lead a team of strategic pricing partners who support complex commercial decisions and help Sales achieve strong outcomes for Block and our customers.
  • The role sits within Strategic Finance and partners closely with Sales, Product, Engineering, Legal, Risk, and Revenue Operations.

Responsibilities

  • Lead and develop a team of strategic pricing partners who support complex commercial decisions across Block’s sales-driven channels.
  • Partner with Sales on the most complex and strategically important opportunities, helping teams structure deals that balance customer value, revenue quality, profitability, ROI, risk, and growth.
  • Build trusted relationships with Sales leadership and cross-functional partners to evaluate revenue, margin, customer economics, and long-term business impact, while informing packaging, offers, launches, and commercial models.
  • Establish clear, thoughtful frameworks for pricing, deal structuring, approvals, exceptions, and commercial risk that enable timely, well-informed decisions while maintaining appropriate financial and commercial guardrails.
  • Build on Block’s existing Deal Desk capabilities by increasing the team’s leverage through automation, AI, data, and scalable processes.
  • Use insights from individual opportunities and customer negotiations to identify broader pricing, packaging, monetization, and portfolio-level opportunities.
  • Establish reporting and operating rhythms that improve visibility into pricing performance, discounting, deal economics, and commercial outcomes.
  • Create practical tools, playbooks, and guidance that help Sales navigate pricing and negotiations with confidence.
  • Identify opportunities to simplify and scale commercial processes while preserving the judgment required for complex deals.

Requirements

  • 12+ years of experience in strategic pricing, monetization, Deal Desk, commercial strategy, revenue operations, finance, consulting, or a related field, with a track record of translating transaction-level insights into broader commercial strategy.
  • Experience leading and developing a high-performing team in a complex, cross-functional environment.
  • Experience supporting enterprise or upmarket sales motions, including complex pricing negotiations.
  • Experience developing pricing frameworks, discounting approaches, approval processes, commercial policies, or related governance.
  • Strong financial acumen and an analytical and data-informed approach, with the ability to turn complex analysis into clear recommendations and evaluate trade-offs across different business outcomes.
  • Experience using technology, automation, AI, or data to increase the scale and effectiveness of commercial work.
  • Comfort operating at both the strategic and tactical levels—from advising on individual opportunities to shaping broader commercial initiatives.
  • Excellent judgment and the ability to make principled decisions in ambiguous or high-stakes situations.
  • Clear, concise communication and strong executive presence.
