Job description

Shape Kinexys growth with market insights, pricing strategy and client-led product commercialization. As an Associate on the Kinexys GTM Strategy & Commercialization team, you’ll take on the commercial questions that help decide what Kinexys builds next. The market data for these questions often doesn’t exist. You’ll build the estimates yourself, defend them, and test our positioning with clients and internal stakeholders. You’ll also help define the team’s strategy and how it’s communicated across the organization. That means shaping our view of how banking and payments may change and turning it into pricing, business cases, operating models and clear messages for senior leaders. You’ll be accountable for the numbers behind our recommendations.
