About the Role
This role offers an opportunity to partner directly with senior business leaders, influence strategic priorities, and shape data-driven growth strategies at scale. As an Associate on the Global Banking Intelligence & Growth Strategy team, you will play a critical role in advancing revenue growth across the Commercial & Investment Bank. Operating in a fast-paced, insight-driven environment, the team combines internal data, external market intelligence, and advanced analytical techniques—including AI and large language models—to identify high-impact opportunities across M&A, capital markets, FX, payments, and corporate banking. You will partner directly with senior business leaders to shape strategic priorities and enable more targeted, data-driven revenue growth strategies.

Key responsibilities include identifying actionable global banking opportunities such as sell-side M&A, take-private situations, and IPO candidates by integrating internal client indicators with external deal activity, valuation signals, and sector dynamics. You will develop market and product insights by analyzing proprietary payment flows, public filings, and external data sources to uncover FX hedging, capital markets, and broader corporate finance opportunities. Additionally, you will create market sizing, total addressable market (TAM), wallet, and share-of-wallet models to guide banker focus and inform strategic prioritization.

Monitoring market, sector, and capital markets developments to generate timely insights that influence client engagement and product strategy is essential. You will design and enhance banker coverage models, prioritization frameworks, and territory strategies to optimize resource deployment and improve revenue productivity. The role also involves designing and building analytical workflows, dashboards, and opportunity assessments that support banker decision-making at scale.

You will drive complex analytical and strategic problem-solving efforts and translate outputs into concise, actionable recommendations for executive audiences. Partnering with leaders across Investment Banking, Corporate Banking, Payments, and Markets ensures insights directly inform strategic agendas and client engagement. You will lead initiatives from ideation through execution ensuring analytical rigor, clarity of outcomes, and alignment with business objectives.
