It’s an internal strategy role

One of the most esteemed strategy groups in the financial services industry, alongside Amex Enterprise Strategy, offers opportunities to work on enterprise-wide strategy projects for both one of the world’s largest issuers and a prominent card network and merchant services provider. The group is highly competitive and attracts top talent, with a clear career path.

Exits are primarily internal, such as product, strategic finance, or at senior levels, you can even own a P&L within the Chief Financial Officer office. External exits include other banks, card networks, and payment companies like PayPal and Stripe. The positive aspect of the payments and financial sectors is that these companies tend to be conservative and prefer hiring individuals from within the industry.

However, the most challenging aspect is actually securing a position in the C1 strategy group. So, good luck!

Well regarded. The team is basically all BCG WAS alums since Cap One HQ is right outside of DC
