• Lead the end-to-end creation of thought leadership content, including white papers, executive summaries, and recurring industry reports.
• Translate complex quantitative findings into clear, executive-ready narratives that provide actionable insight for financial services leaders.
• Partner with design and marketing stakeholders to develop effective data visualizations that communicate sophisticated analysis with clarity and impact.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in quantitative analysis, data science, or economic research, specifically within the Financial Services, Fintech, or Banking sectors.
• Deep domain expertise in consumer finance, including a strong understanding of retail banking products, credit/lending lifecycles, and transaction-level data (e.g., merchant cleansing, categorization).
• Demonstrated experience developing and validating statistical or quantitative models (e.g., LTV, Churn, or Propensity models) using large, complex financial datasets.
• Strong ability to translate technical analysis into clear written narratives that resonate with Executive Leadership at Financial Institutions (FIs) and industry analysts.
• Proven experience authoring analytical reports or white papers that address macroeconomic trends, interest rate environments, or consumer spending behavior.
• Advanced analytical thinking with a high degree of data integrity, particularly concerning sensitive financial data and compliance standards.
• Bachelor’s degree in Economics, Finance, Statistics, or a related field required; Masters or PhD with a focus on Financial Economics or Econometrics highly preferred.
• Candidates must provide a portfolio or samples of prior analytical writing or thought leadership focused on the financial services industry.
