Description
At SumUp, we are motivated by the purpose of leveling the playing field for small businesses. We empower small business owners by creating simple and affordable tools to manage payments, finance and customer relationships. We are a passionate team that thrives on human connection, autonomy and the desire to constantly learn, guided by our values ‘Founder’s Mentality’, ‘Team First’ and ‘We Care’. We want to build an enduring organization that is people-positive, disciplined and that constantly innovates from within. Agility is the essence of an enduring organization and we strive to create an organization that fosters it.
As we continue to scale and execution becomes more complex, we’re hiring an Operating Principal to join the CEO Office and strengthen how we translate strategy into execution through clear priorities, decision cadences, and decision-useful performance visibility. This role is not a project manager / PMO / delivery lead / sprint owner role. You will work across senior stakeholders without direct authority, building trust quickly and driving clarity and action in a complex, high-ambiguity environment.
