Manager, Field Sales - Los Angeles

About the role

Square is building a world-class, high-accountability field sales organization — and we're looking for a leader based in LA who is both a coach and a builder. You know the craft of selling deeply: how to open doors, generate pipeline, position value competitively, and close with precision. You lead from the front, developing your team through active engagement — not from the sidelines.

You will be the driving force behind a disciplined, insight-led sales motion that blends in-person selling with proactive outbound strategy. Your leadership will elevate both the quality and velocity of revenue while shaping a culture rooted in excellence, ownership, and growth.

If you are a hands-on leader with deep product expertise, strong competitive instincts, and a track record of raising the bar for sellers — this is your next move.

You will

• Lead with expertise in the field — Develop Territory Account Executives through active, in-market coaching — from sourcing and opening conversations to consultative discovery, competitive positioning, and closing with clarity.
• Model world-class selling by joining prospect and customer meetings, demonstrating product fluency, value articulation, and decisive deal strategy.
• Spend significant time in the field with your team, strengthening local relationships, fueling community-driven pipeline creation, and ensuring sellers experience Square through a human, product-driven presence.
• Operate in the details — Manage pipeline and KPIs with rigor — diagnosing gaps, identifying risks, expanding coverage, and guiding AEs to create and progress high-quality opportunities.
• Run disciplined weekly pipeline, forecast, and deal reviews that drive action, accountability, and predictable outcomes across multiple markets. Use data-backed insights to coach AE effectiveness, elevate sales execution, and ensure consistent momentum across high-velocity, complex sales cycles.
• Build a high-performance, high-accountability culture — Create an environment defined by trust, clear expectations, ownership, and open communication.
• Hold the team to a high bar of execution while providing the clarity, structure, and hands-on coaching needed to meet it.
• Hire, onboard, and develop AEs to ramp quickly, deepen product expertise, and consistently exceed quota.
• Scale expertise, process, and go-to-market effectiveness — Become a product and competitive expert — ensuring your team can confidently articulate Square's value and differentiation.
• Build scalable, repeatable field sales motions that increase funnel quality, improve outbound productivity, and accelerate growth in your assigned cities.
• Continuously refine strategy, playbooks, and operating rhythms to deepen Square's presence and win market share across key local ecosystems.
• Partner and innovate across the business — Champion the customer voice and collaborate cross-functionally to strengthen product-market fit and unlock new revenue pathways.
• Engage deeply with community networks, partners, and local events to amplify brand awareness and fuel top-of-funnel opportunity creation.

You have

• 8+ years of sales success, ideally in a high-growth environment
• 5+ years of leadership experience, preferably managing field account executives
• Experience in high-transaction SaaS or financial services sales
• Strong bias toward action and experimentation, balanced with thoughtful decision-making
• A track record of building a winning, high-performing culture through hands-on leadership and coaching
• Extensive experience operating in a metrics-driven sales organization
• Proven ability to influence and collaborate with cross-functional partners in a rapidly scaling business
• Experience scaling and overseeing large Field Sales teams
• Strong ability to communicate and build relationships with senior executives
• Excellent interpersonal, leadership, organizational, and communication skills
