About the team

The Marketing Strategy and Operations team is responsible for organizational effectiveness and transformational programs. We help create the processes and conditions for high performance by others. We partner closely with the CMO and the marketing leadership team to drive strategy, operations and planning across the marketing and sales development organization. And we lead programs that make things noticeably better for internal and external users.

What you’ll do

You will partner closely with the Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) and the Marketing Leadership Team (MLT) to drive innovation and excellence across global marketing. You’ll lead the Marketing Strategy & Operations team, which is responsible for planning, key initiatives, and running the operating rhythms that keep marketing efficiently moving in sync with Stripe’s broader goals.

You’ll ensure the marketing organization is executing effectively—connecting strategy to action, and maintaining clear communication and accountability across global teams.
