Principal Business Operations Manager

Overview

Getting paid faster is one of small business owners’ most critical problems. Cash flow challenges are cited as a cause for 82% of small business failures. This remains an unsolved problem despite rapid innovation in fintech, including seamless credit card acceptance and new forms of lending for small business owners. There has never been a better time to innovate and make significant progress in solving systemic issues in small business cash management, and the global pandemic has accelerated rapid changes in adoption of new

money technologies. Almost half of small business owners (47%) have started accepting payments in new ways since the start of the pandemic and of the small businesses that offer contactless payments, nearly half (46%) started doing so during COVID-19.

We are looking for a Principal Commercial Leader to support this mission and drive growth in our Money In business. This position requires strong strategic problem solving and communication skills, the ability to influence and develop productive partnerships at all levels of the organization, and a strong understanding of Intuit’s mission and values. This is a role with broad exposure to many senior leaders.

You will report to the Director of Commercial for QuickBooks Payments and work closely with cross-functional teams including Product, Marketing, Data Analytics, Finance, Partnerships, and Business Development to solve our customers’ problems and accelerate growth.
