Additional Responsibilities & Preferred Qualifications : About the team: “Just Venmo me.” You may have heard or used this phrase before. Venmo has verb-status and is deeply woven as a brand into the social fabric of our culture. But Venmo isn’t just about payments. It’s about community. It’s where your money finds meaning as you share, connect, and split purchases with friends and loved ones. People love sending money and paying with Venmo, and we've come a long way from our humble beginnings as a P2P app. Millions of users have now also made products such as the Venmo Debit Card a part of their lives, and there’s so much more we can do as their go-to for simple, social and rewarding payments.  Many small business owners already use Venmo as a Consumer, and this Commerce-specific work evolves the way they view Venmo — from a place to send and receive money, to the ecosystem that helps them build their business: from payment acceptance and backend tools to run their business efficiently, to helping them get discovered by new customers, build repeat relationships, and grow — without asking them to learn a new system or their customers to leave the app they already use. The Venmo Marketing team is a critical driver of Venmo’s growth trajectory, and the Product Marketing team specifically steers Venmo’s orientation to our customers via a deep understanding of the external landscape and strategic delivery of our evolving value proposition across all channels and partnerships. As a Product Marketing Lead, you will be responsible for crafting product marketing vision and narrative, partnering closely with cross-functional teams across Venmo on inbound and outbound product marketing initiatives to deliver on Venmo’s strategic goals.  Additional Responsibilities:  Two-Sided Product Strategy & Positioning: Develop and refine positioning, messaging, and value propositions for Venmo’s Commerce products — speaking distinctly and credibly to both the micro sellers and solopreneurs who run their business through Venmo, and the customers who discover and support them. Go-to-Market Leadership Across the Seller Lifecycle: Lead the end-to-end go-to-market strategy for Commerce, building marketing around how small business owners actually operate, including product launches, feature updates, and ongoing marketing campaigns to drive awareness, consideration, adoption, and growth
