Reporting to the Head, Strategy & Planning, and working in close support of the CMO, Personal Banking, this individual plays a key role across two interconnected pillars: leading the intelligence-gathering and narrative that drives Marketing’s Quarterly Business Reviews with the Group Head, Personal Banking; and maintaining a sharp, always-current view of the competitive landscape. If you’re energized by turning complex information into something clear, compelling, and actionable, and you’re motivated by work that reaches the C-suite, this is the role for you. What will you do?

From corralling stakeholder inputs, data and performance metrics across multiple teams to building the presentation that goes in front of the Group Head, Personal Banking (PB). Establishing relationships that make the process run smoothly, setting clear expectations on timelines and formats, and knowing when to follow-up, push back, or ask clarifying questions. A tight narrative, anchored in sharp insights, that addresses what senior leaders need to hear. Competitive Intelligence Reporting Build and maintain a living view of the competitive landscape across brand and business. From brand tracking results to media spend trends to business performance metrics, you’ll develop analytical instincts to surface what matters.

Dynamic Support of PB Marketing Strategy As the role evolves, there’s real scope to take on additional strategic priorities in support of PB Marketing with an elevated understanding of how marketing creates value across product portfolios, channels and client segments.

Intellectually curious and analytically rigorous, with instincts to know what matters and the discipline to support it with evidence.

Background in management consulting or a strategy / planning function. Background in media analytics, brand research, or business intelligence. WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU?
