Role summary

Squarespace seeks an experienced Senior Manager of International Strategy to join their INTL GTM team. This individual contributor role focuses on end-to-end go-to-market strategy across international markets, encompassing budgeting, planning, content, media investment, and cross-functional execution. The ideal candidate is analytically driven, adaptable, and a strong business partner, comfortable with ambiguity and driving strategy from planning to measurable outcomes. Key responsibilities include market ownership, AI-discovery strategy, media investment planning, and cross-functional collaboration. Requires 10+ years of experience in international strategy, GTM, or consulting.

We are looking for an experienced International Strategy Sr. Manager to join our INTL GTM team. This is a critical Individual Contributor role owning end-to-end go-to-market strategy across multiple international markets and strategic initiatives - from budgeting and planning through content strategy, media investment, and cross-functional execution. You will build the playbooks and frameworks that shape how Squarespace shows up internationally.

You are an analytically driven, scrappy operator who moves fluidly between long-term strategic planning and hands-on execution. You're comfortable picking up new problem spaces quickly, and you act as a genuine business partner - to your manager, to senior stakeholders, and to teams across Product, Brand, Commercial, Finance, and Analytics.

This role is hybrid, based in the NYC area, with 2-3 days per week in office. You will report to the Associate Director, International & GTM.

You’ll Get To…

End-to-End Market Ownership: Own GTM strategy and execution - including multi-year budgeting and resource planning - for a portfolio of international markets, building repeatable frameworks that extend to less mature markets over time.

AEO & Content Strategy: Define and drive the content and AI-discovery strategy for owned markets, building the playbook that scales into new markets over time.

Media Investment & Planning: Own media investment strategy and planning, partnering with Brand and Analytics to ensure spend is tied to measurable performance outcomes.

Cross-Functional Strategic Partnership: Serve as the primary GTM voice into Product, Brand, Commercial, Finance, and Analytics - representing market needs upstream and translating cross-functional roadmaps into GTM action.

Analytical Rigor: Bring a data-driven approach to prioritization - using performance data to decide where to invest, what to test, and when to pivot.

Who We’re Looking For

10+ years of experience in International Strategy, GTM Strategy & Operations, Consulting, or a related strategic function at a high-growth company

Proven track record owning end-to-end strategy and execution - from planning through measurable outcomes

Strong analytical skills, with the ability to turn data into clear operational and strategic decisions

Demonstrated ability to operate in ambiguous, fast-changing environments and pivot quickly as priorities shift

Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence senior leaders and cross-functional partners without direct authority

Experience partnering cross-functionally with Product, Brand, Commercial, Finance, or Analytics teams

AI-first mindset - personally fluent in using AI tools to drive productivity, with a strong instinct for identifying where AI or automation can improve GTM workflows and team-wide processes

International or multi-market experience is a plus, but not required
