Deal Pricing Strategist

Who we are

About Stripe

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies—from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups—use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone’s reach while doing the most important work of your career.

About the team

Deal Pricing is a dedicated global finance function that provides deal pricing expertise, financial insights and deal support for negotiated users to Stripe’s global Go-to-Market teams. We work to ensure deals create economic value for Stripe by establishing the deal commercial framework for a scaling sales organization, actively supporting large and strategic deals and providing pricing insights and feedback to sales, finance and product leaders. Deal Pricing frequently works with cross-functional business partners across Finance & Strategy and Product and there is constant collaboration with Deal Pricing colleagues across all regions. The AMER Deal Pricing Strategists cover teams in the United States, Canada and Latin America and are located in Stripe offices and remote locations across the region.

What you’ll do

You will be instrumental in providing thought leadership to regional sales teams and senior executives and continuing to develop our framework, approach and associated processes in order to achieve mutually beneficial deals with our sold Users while mitigating risk to Stripe. In addition to providing key financial insights and recommendations to business partners and Stripe leadership, you will have a chance to stretch beyond the boundaries of finance through business case development and commercial negotiations with all types of customers across the full suite of Stripe’s financial and payment products.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as a key financial and strategic thought partner to specific AMER Go-to-Market sales teams and their leadership in both pricing deals at scale and pricing strategic deals 
  • Be responsible for defining and implementing our pricing and margin guidance and identifying levers for financial uplift
  • Develop and refine new frameworks to evaluate a deal’s attractiveness to Stripe, ensuring alignment between these frameworks, the company’s long range plan and mutually agreeable outcomes with cross-functional business partners
  • Maintain up to date pricing benchmarks and contribute to team analytical design and production efforts, using this data to enhance our pricing philosophy

Who you are

We’re looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

Minimum requirements

  • Minimum 3+ years of experience in finance or deal pricing at a company, or experience within investment banking, management consulting or private equity/venture capital
  • A proven ability to build collaborative working relationships with business partners through a combination of influencing and awareness
  • The ability to deal effectively with ambiguity and thrive in an unstructured, fast-moving environment by driving business results without significant supervision
  • Excellent financial modeling, verbal and written communication skills

Preferred qualifications

  • Experience in the payments or technology sector
  • Experience presenting findings and recommendations to senior leadership, preferably to sales of go-to-market business partners
  • Experience with SQL and Tableau or a willingness to learn is a must

Hybrid work at Stripe

This role is available either in an office or a remote location (typically, 35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office).

Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams.

A remote location, in most cases, is defined as being 35 miles (56 kilometers) or more from one of our offices. While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on-sites, meet-ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office. Stripe does not cover the cost of relocating to a remote location. We encourage you to apply for roles that match the location where you currently or plan to live.

Pay and benefits

The annual US base salary range for this role is $133,800 - $200,700. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.

Additional benefits for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision benefits; and wellness stipends.
