About the team

- Develop and implement a framework for the COE spanning opportunity identification through to ongoing execution, measurement and improvement of fully-transitioned processes
- Create and maintain engagement and accountability mechanisms including COE Roadmap to inform prioritization and planning, metrics and OKRs to monitor progress, and operating cadence (e.g. Monthly and Quarterly Business Reviews, Steering Council meetings)
- Perform process deep dives to document end-to-end process flow, identify and resolve risks and issues, and organize or deliver training for the process to transition
- Develop, monitor and execute transition plans accounting for operational readiness and capacity of the sending and receiving teams

- Collaborate and maintain strong relationships with key stakeholders in F&S and across the organization
- Develop and execute change management plans to prepare for and manage successful implementation
- Contribute to F&S Process & Systems PMO projects as needed

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 $166,900 - $250,300. 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.
