Senior Manager Investment Offer Strategy

Your OpportunityAt Schwab, you’re empowered to make an impact on your career. Here, innovative thought meets creative problem solving, helping us challenge the status quo and transform the finance industry together. We believe in the importance of in-office collaboration and fully intend for the selected candidate for this role to work on site in the specified location(s). Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis without employer sponsorship. Schwab’s Investment Platforms, Solutions, and Strategy (SIPSS) organization brings together leaders across existing and emerging investment product areas, including digital assets, private markets, third-party products and platforms, separately managed accounts, digital advice, and product strategy. This team is focused on building a premier investment product suite that meets the evolving needs of Schwab clients while supporting long-term business growth.Within this organization, the Senior Manager, Investment Offer Strategy will be part of the Investment Offers & Solutions (IOS) group, a team responsible for shaping strategy across proprietary Separately Managed Account products and third-party product marketplaces, including alternative investments, managed accounts, mutual funds, ETFs, structured products, fixed income, annuities and insurance, and 529 solutions. This role sits at the center of important strategic questions: where should Schwab invest next, how should the offer portfolio evolve over the next 3–5 years, and how can Schwab continue to differentiate its platforms in a changing investment landscape?In this role, you will own discrete components of the long-term offer strategy and lead high-visibility initiatives end-to-end – from problem framing and hypothesis development through executive decision-making and launch. You will use Product Strategy, Strategic Thinking, Market Research, Competitive Analysis, Modeling, and Risk Assessment to evaluate new opportunities, synthesize complex information, and develop clear recommendations that influence business direction. Your work will require close collaboration across Retail, Advisor Services, Workplace, Schwab Asset Management, and corporate partners such as Risk, Finance, Legal, and Compliance to shape go-forward offer strategy that supports clients, RIAs, asset managers, and Schwab.This role is designed for strategy professionals – particularly former management consultants who have served wealth management, brokerage, or asset management clients – who want to move from advising on strategy to owning it. Unlike a consulting engagement, you will see your recommendations through to implementation and measure their impact on one of the largest investment platforms in the industry. You will deepen your strategy expertise while gaining broad exposure across investment products, platforms, and senior leadership. The role is well suited for someone who is curious, adaptable, highly resourceful, and energized by work that blends analytical rigor, collaboration, and business impact.What You’ll DoLead strategic initiatives across the IOS product and platform portfolio, scoping the key questions, structuring the work, and driving to a clear recommendation and decisionBuild business cases, market sizing, and financial models to evaluate new product, pricing, and platform opportunitiesDevelop and maintain a perspective on industry trends, competitor moves, and client and advisor needs, and translate them into implications for Schwab’s offer strategyPrepare and present executive-ready materials for IOS and SIPSS leadership, and support materials for broader senior leadership forumsPartner with product, distribution, and corporate functions (Risk, Finance, Legal, Compliance) to move initiatives through governance and into executionFacilitate working sessions and workshops with cross-functional stakeholders to align on direction, trade-offs, and next stepsSupport the IOS annual strategic planning cycle and manage ad hoc strategic questions from senior leadersWhat you haveRequired QualificationsBachelor’s degree7+ years of total work experience3+ years of business strategy experience, ideally at a leading management consulting firm or in a high-performing internal strategy team; financial services experience strongly preferredUnderstanding of the wealth management market and investment products, such as mutual funds, ETFs, and separately managed accountsAbility to use Strategic Thinking and Product Strategy to bring structure to ambiguous business problems, evaluate alternatives, and develop recommendations that support long-term business outcomesExperience conducting research and analysis, including Market Research, Competitive Analysis, financial or business Modeling, and synthesis of complex information into clear insightsStrong Written Communication skills with the ability to develop executive-level communications and presentations that articulate vision, strategy, recommendations, and progressAbility to collaborate across business lines and corporate functions while adapting recommendations based on stakeholder needs, business priorities, and risk considerationsProficiency in Microsoft PowerPoint and Excel, and comfort using AI productivity tools (e.g., Microsoft Copilot)Preferred QualificationsManagement consulting experience serving wealth management, brokerage, asset management, or other financial services clientsPrior experience in wealth management or asset managementMBAExperience developing or supporting investment product, platform, pricing, or offer strategyDemonstrated Strategic Planning skills, including the ability to scope and structure complex work, think multiple steps ahead, and recognize second-order impactsExecutive Presence, including the ability to communicate insights and influence senior leaders through clear, data-driven storytellingStrong Project Management skills, including the ability to proactively advance work independently and with teams while managing deadlines and competing prioritiesFamiliarity with Risk Assessment, regulatory considerations, or financial analysis connected to investment products or platformsExposure to emerging areas shaping the industry, such as alternative investments, digital assets, or AI-enabled adviceIn addition to the salary range, this role is eligible for bonus or incentive opportunities.
