Key Responsibilities:
  • Evaluate strategic business, product, and partnership opportunities to help Empower decide where to deploy its resources to maximize long-term value.
  • Collaborate with Empower's leadership team to drive strategic decisions by clearly defining a challenge or opportunity, developing actionable solutions, and understanding tradeoffs.

  • Manage external partner relationships, including initial identification, evaluation, negotiations, and onboarding of new partners.
  • Develop a deep understanding of the competitive landscape and industry offerings to identify upcoming challenges or white space opportunities for Empower.
  • Support the strategy development process during the annual budget season and when developing the multi-year strategic business plan for Empower.
  • Build financial models, simulations, and business cases to identify patterns and inform data-driven decision-making.

Requirements:

  • Outstanding communication skills, adept at influencing and persuading stakeholders through effective and impactful communication.
  • Analytical thinker with a proven hypothesis-driven approach to ambiguous questions, bringing structure to quantitative and qualitative insights.
  • Passionate about tackling complex and impactful business challenges with a high level of independence and attention to detail.
  • Expert in creating compelling presentations that tell a story as much as persuade with data analysis.
  • Ability to quickly switch context between 10k feet strategic level and detailed execution-oriented work.
  • Bachelor's degree.
What We Offer:
  • Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance.
  • Retirement savings - 401(k) plan with generous company matching contributions (up to 6%), financial advisory services, potential company discretionary contribution, and a broad investment lineup.
