Senior Associate, Strategy Analyst
About the RoleAs a Strategy Analyst, you'll develop and apply analytical rigour, problem solving skills and critical thinking from day one. Embedded within a cross-functional team, you'll bring your strategies to life from conception and analytical business case building to in-market delivery, measuring their impact through testing and monitoring, and ultimately being accountable for both customer and financial outcomes. You'll spend time gathering and visualizing data, storytelling through presentations, collaborating with experts in areas like legal and technology, and influencing senior leadership on critical decisions.
From a technical perspective, you'll have access to various coding and visualization tools. You'll work with SQL to query data, use spreadsheets and Python-based notebooks to organize it, and Slides to present it, along with other modern analytics tools, such as Tableau and Quicksight.
Our strategy analysts are deployed across all areas of our business - product design, fraud, customer acquisitions, customer management strategy, and more - and analysts over time get the opportunity to rotate to different areas of the business to help them build a well rounded understanding of our business. Here are a few of the ways our Strategy Analysts are helping people take control of their credit:
- Underwriting (Credit Policy & Valuations): Strategy Analysts are responsible for assisting in developing & maintaining statistical models and the associated credit policies that help us determine who we extend credit to. Analysts in the space perform analysis on credit performance to help influence how we update and optimize our models & policies.
- Fraud: Strategy Analysts are responsible for developing the defences and policies to mitigate fraud losses for Capital One, creating a safe and secure experience for our customers. Analysts in the space perform diligent monitoring to understand emerging fraud trends and propose actions to prevent fraudulent behaviour.
- Product Development: Strategy Analysts are responsible for developing the strategies to test and scale new financial product offerings. Analysts conduct market & customer research, and couple these insights with internal data modeling to propose new solutions for our customers. Analysts in this space work with process and technology experts to get new products in the hands of our customers, and iterate upon our offerings based on consumer reception.
To continue your learning, you'll also join the Canada Analyst Development Program (CADP), which takes place over your first year with us. The program provides comprehensive foundational training not only in product strategy but also across various other key areas, including underwriting, fraud prevention, risk management, customer lifecycle, etc. to equip you with the skills and knowledge to make meaningful contributions to cross-functional projects.
Your Responsibilities: - Perform modeling/analytics to assist and lead new product and pricing strategies for various lending products.
- Develop direct-to-consumer marketing strategies and initiatives to support business growth objectives.
- Help build targeted insights to inform the design and development of new customer experiences, as well as breakthrough technology and concepts designed to deliver on new go to market strategies.
