We are looking for passionate and talented professionals, who share our vision for helping our customers with their most urgent business needs, and we are recruiting for 3 career tracks that make up our team:
1)Business Experimentation
- Sampling of questions we help our customers answer:
oWhere should a retailer open new stores to maximize profitability and minimize the cannibalization of nearby omnichannel sales?

oWhat bonus should be provided to someone opening a credit card account to entice them to use the card regularly?

2)Marketing Services
- Develop strategies and lead implementation of marketing campaigns and engagements; evaluate results to drive performance on behalf of Mastercard's clients. Provide deep direct marketing expertise across channels, leveraging customer, behavioral and transactional data and defining tangible results to both the client and Mastercard.
- Sampling of questions we help our clients answer:
oHow does a fintech client optimize new customer acquisition and existing customers' life cycle value through effective targeting and communications?

oHow does a retail client drive foot traffic into store post-covid and/or optimize their ecommerce website to increase basket-size and average spend per customer?

oHow can a large financial institution best execute on a portfolio conversion - for example, after purchasing another issuer's portfolio - including components like internal and external communications, market launch, and more?

Team members typically support projects from any domain and build fundamental marketing and consulting toolkit.
