Inclusion & Diversity Lead

Stripe is on an extraordinary growth trajectory, with 2000 Stripes spread across 13 offices worldwide and growing. Together, we are building the economic infrastructure of the internet, helping small startups and the world’s biggest companies build products, create business models, and scale their efforts globally. 

As part of this growth, we are committed to building an inclusive work environment where all Stripes feel welcomed as their authentic selves—inclusive of all genders, sexual orientations, ethnicities, races, education, ages, or other personal characteristics. We work on broadening our internal diversity because we want to be culturally equipped to build products and solutions for our diverse user base.

• Design ways to measure the impact of our programs and initiatives 
• Partner with the recruiting team to develop strategies to expand the diversity of our pipeline
• Use qualitative (i.e - employee points of view) and quantitative data (i.e. engagement surveys) to uncover ways to strengthen inclusion across Stripe
• Partner with Education and other teams to broaden and deepen our culture of inclusion across programs

Must haves:

• Prior experience working on diversity & inclusion related initiatives with demonstrated evidence of impact and progress within the space
• Excellent stakeholder management skills to draw energy and support from others to get things done, create leverage, and mobilize internal advocates
• Resilience, empathy, and determination to advocate for underrepresented groups
• Demonstrable sound judgement in ambiguous, unstructured, and nuanced environments 
• Excellent facilitation, presentation, project management, and written and verbal communication skills, particularly around matters of culture, inclusion, and diversity
• Ability to develop targeted recruiting efforts for underrepresented groups, including strategic planning, partnership management, and tactical implementation

Nice to haves:

• Strong analytical skills; ability to understand and use data to influence program strategies and develop compelling narratives about organizational effectiveness and impact

• Experience working with or being a part of employee resources groups or similar collective
