Role Overview
We’re looking for a smart, resourceful, and analytically strong individual to join our Financial Services team as Strategy & Operations Manager (Financial Services). This role is an opportunity to help build and scale a growing business within Clutch, working across Product, Engineering, Data, Marketing, Sales, and our external lending partners.
We’re looking for a high-agency generalist who can flex across different problems, bring structure to ambiguity, and independently take ideas from analysis through execution.
What You'll Do
Drive Strategic Projects
Lead strategic initiatives across Financial Services, from identifying opportunities through analysis, execution, and measurement.
Help identify and execute opportunities to grow our financing and insurance business and expand the number of customers we can serve.
Build business cases, analyses, reports, and recommendations independently to drive decision-making.
Work Cross-Functionally to Build
Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Data, Marketing, and Sales to improve our product offering and customer journey.
Translate business problems into actionable solutions, whether that means digging into data, building a mockup, or helping define a new product or process.
Move quickly from identifying a problem to testing and implementing solutions.
Support Financial Services Strategy
Analyze customer, funnel, and financial performance to identify opportunities and inform strategy.
Bring a Financial Services lens to product and business decisions across Clutch.
Build and manage relationships with major Canadian lenders and other external partners.
Self-Learning & Experimentation
Take initiative to learn new tools and technologies with minimal handholding.
Use AI and modern tools to analyze problems, build faster, and improve how the team operates.
Thrive in an environment where many of the problems you’ll tackle don't come with an existing playbook.
What We're Looking For
4+ years of experience in management consulting, strategy & operations, product, fintech, financial services, or a high-performing startup environment.
Strong analytical skills and comfort using data to solve complex business problems.
Proven ability to independently own projects from problem definition through execution.
Strong builder mentality. You’re comfortable rolling up your sleeves and creating the analysis, process, mockup, or solution yourself.
Comfortable with ambiguity and able to move quickly across different types of problems.
Strong cross-functional skills, particularly working with Product, Engineering, and Data teams.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
High-agency, curious, and resourceful. You take ownership and don’t wait to be told what to do.
Nice to Have
Experience in consumer lending, banking, credit, or fintech.
Management consulting experience within Financial Services.
Experience working on financial products or partnering closely with Product teams.
