Description du poste

The Chief Administrative Office (CAO) Strategy & Process Improvement (S&PI) team is the firm's in-house advisory team committed to delivering high-impact, strategic solutions which address JPMC's most urgent needs.

As a Strategy & Process Improvement Associate in the Chief Administrative Office team, you will make crucial business decisions that strengthen operating models, enhance employee or client experience, and improve the firm's bottom line in collaboration with senior leaders including the Chief Administrative Officer and the Chief Operating Officer of the firm. Your projects will span global operations, administrative functions, and firmwide initiatives across lines of business. You will frequently focus on addressing complex and emerging business opportunities such as: firmwide AI adoption, product operating model strategy, and firmwide bureaucracy streamlining.

S&PI follows a hypothesis-driven, empirical approach to problem solving, a similar approach to that adopted by major consulting firms (e.g., McKinsey, Bain, BCG). Project teams are structured similarly to consulting industry teams, with small, 2-4 person teams across our NYC and Dallas locations dedicated to a project for up to 6 months. Projects begin by establishing a strong fact-base and understanding of the problem, followed by working closely with businesses on both short-term and long-term solutions, and culminating in a recommendation meeting with senior leadership.
