The Business Strategy & Analytics team partners with senior leadership and the broader business to drive data-informed decisions, optimize business processes, and deliver strategic insights that shape the future of U.S. Global Wealth Management (GWM). We’re seeking a highly motivated Associate or Senior Associate to join the team in New York. This role offers a unique opportunity to contribute to high-visibility initiatives, manage cross-functional projects, and support business operations that are foundational to GWM’s daily decision-making. You’ll help drive strategic priorities by supporting business-critical data and technology projects, implementing process enhancements, and contributing to senior stakeholder communications. You’ll play a critical role in business operations by validating the integrity of client, sales, and asset data. This data underpins GWM’s reporting infrastructure and informs decisions across distribution, product, and leadership teams. Your work will ensure that the business has confidence in the accuracy and reliability of the data it uses to measure performance, identify opportunities, and execute strategy.

This role offers high visibility and collaboration with senior stakeholders across Sales, HR, Finance, and Technology.
