Why this role is important to us

The Corporate Strategy team plays a central role in shaping State Street’s future and ensuring its overall success. Across the globe, institutional investors rely on State Street to help them manage risk, respond to challenges, and drive performance and profitability. To make that happen, the Corporate Strategy team is at the center of setting the firm-wide strategic direction and evaluating some of the organization’s most critical strategic questions. State Street’s Corporate Strategy team provides strategic support and insight across State Street’s diverse business lines (e.g., investment management, custody services, data & analytics solutions, FX & treasury) to drive effective decision-making and action by senior management and the Board. This is a great opportunity to join a small, high-impact team with direct exposure to State Street’s senior management and Executive Committee. The group has a strong track-record of people migrating from Global Strategy to leadership roles across the firm.
