Identify, validate, and advance next-horizon opportunities that shape Vanguard's future.

Lead competitive strategy and scenario planning to anticipate market shifts, breakthrough technologies, and evolving client needs.

Partner with Vanguard's Strategic Consulting team and Corporate Development team to help drive enterprise-level strategy and initiatives that position the firm for long-term resilience and success.

Collaborate across Vanguard to advance high-impact technology and digital product incubation efforts.

Synthesize complex and ambiguous data into actionable recommendations; deliver compelling materials and presentations to the firm's most senior leadership.

High EQ and Collaboration: You excel at managing complex stakeholder groups and navigating differing views dispassionately in high-stakes settings. You'll be working with senior executives, business leaders, technical teams, and external partners, often acting as the connective bond among them.

Proven Track Record: We look for a demonstrated track record of extraordinary achievement, whether in prior roles, academics, or other endeavors.

Domain Expertise: Deep subject matter expertise in financial services and/or financial technology is a significant advantage.

Minimum of eight years related experience.
