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
Global Deal Management’s (GDMs) primary goal is to ensure operational excellence across deal cycles, increase revenue through the development of transformative commercial constructs, and drive closure of Stripe’s sold portfolio. The team's reach is widespread across Stripe, not exclusive to one sales segment or geographical region; GDM drives change across go-to-market, positively impacting Stripe users and cross-functional teams. GDM’s priorities are set through the direction of Stripe leadership and executive vision, partnership with sales and cross-functional organizations, as well as User feedback and market insights.
What you’ll do
Stripe’s Global Deal Management team is looking for a Deal Analyst to focus on the closure of custom and standard commercial deals. This includes supporting deal lifecycles for large, transformational, and strategic opportunities. You will be responsible for deal lifecycle management and supporting cross-organizational alignment. This role requires a background in driving custom pricing deals to closure, a strong understanding of private pricing frameworks, and experience supporting sales through negotiations.
The candidate will have experience with SaaS products, private pricing strategies, and a background in supporting selling motions. The candidate will have strong communication skills and executive presence to effectively communicate with Stripe leadership. You will love this job if you are a natural relationship and mechanism builder.
Responsibilities
- Work directly with customers, sales teams, sales leaders, and services/support teams to advise on deal structures, establish compelling commercials, and drive closure of customer issues.
- Understand the business and technical requirements of our customers and partners, advising sales teams on the best approach (balancing risk between custom terms and internal system limitations).
- Work cross-functionally to develop global mechanisms for global deal management (sales intake, approval matrixes, systems of record, contracting mechanisms, billing enablement, new commercial constructs).
- Remove internal blockers between cross-functional teams such as Product, Legal, Finance, Accounting, Service Teams, etc.
- Support the sales cycle to ensure the deal terms align with Stripe goals, strategic vision is met, and closes as forecasted.

- Support the pricing and structuring of multithreaded product use cases in all segments and industries especially in highly competitive sales.
- Quickly build credibility and trust with internal customers.
- Provide strong support, communication, and persuasion skills including cross-functional teams and senior leaders.

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.
The annual US base salary range for this role is $101,840 - $152,760. 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.
