JOB DESCRIPTION

Do you want to shape the future of Chase Open Banking, helping define where the business plays, how it wins, and how it grows in a disciplined, customer-centered way? Join this rapidly growing, revenue-generating business.

As a Senior Associate, Business Strategy within Open Banking, you will support the development of the long-term strategy for Open Banking across outbound data sharing and inbound data ingestion. You will partner with senior leaders and cross-functional teams to drive strategic analyses, scenario planning, and executive-ready decision materials that inform growth, prioritization, and business direction.

The Chase Open Banking team is committed to empowering customers to share their financial data securely, safely, and transparently within the open banking ecosystem. We enable customers to access their financial data and have full control and visibility in sharing it securely with the apps and companies they choose. We sit at the intersection of financial regulation, technology infrastructure, and commercial strategy - advising senior leaders on one of the most consequential shifts underway in consumer finance. This role demands intellectual range, crisp judgment, and the ability to synthesize ambiguous, fast-moving inputs into clear points of view.

Job Responsibilities

• Support the development of Open Banking's long-term business strategy by contributing to strategic priorities, planning frameworks, and executive narratives.
• Help translate business, regulatory, technology, and market inputs into clear takeaways, options, and supporting materials for decisions.
• Build analyses and contribute to scenario plans that assess the impact of regulatory, policy, market, and business model changes on Open Banking strategy and growth.
• Support prioritization, investment, and roadmap discussions by helping frame trade-offs, documenting implications, and synthesizing inputs from partners.
• Partner with Finance and cross-functional teams to support business cases and investment analyses (e.g., assumptions, sensitivities, narrative support).
• Contribute to maintaining the strategic narrative for Open Banking by tracking key themes, decisions, and messages for leadership and partner teams.
• Collaborate across Product, Technology, Risk, Legal, Compliance, Policy, and business teams to gather inputs and keep workstreams aligned and well-coordinated.
• Draft and iterate executive-ready presentations, memos, and communications (clear storylines, structured slides, crisp writing).
• Uphold strong risk management, ethical leadership, and adherence to firmwide standards.
• Foster a culture of accountability, engagement, and high performance within the team, promoting diversity and inclusion.

Required Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills

• 3+ years of experience in consulting, business operations, corporate strategy, product strategy, or related roles within financial services, fintech, or another complex regulated environment.
• Strong problem-structuring skills and comfort working with ambiguity; able to turn questions into clear analyses and next steps.
• Ability to write and speak in a way that is clear, not just smart, and have contributed to executive-level communications, including presentations, decision materials, and strategic narratives.
• An ownership mindset that translates into high agency projects, plus a willingness to roll up your sleeves on a problem.
• You naturally look for how things connect and can hold the business, regulatory, and technological dimensions of a project simultaneously - translating them into actionable strategic implications.
• Comfort working across stakeholders in a matrixed environment.
• Collaborative mindset and strong interpersonal skills.
• Bachelor's degree required.

Preferred Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills

• Familiarity with Open Banking, payments, fintech, data businesses, platform strategy, or adjacent consumer financial services topics.
• Advanced degree (e.g., MBA, MPA, JD) a plus, but not required.
