Are you someone who thrives at the intersection of strategy, data, and execution? Do you enjoy turning complex ideas into real-world impact?

Want to work directly with senior leadership and help shape the future of a global private equity platform?

Our Client (≈$15B AUM) is hiring a Strategic Business Analyst to sit at the intersection of strategy, data, and execution.

This is a high-impact, newly created role not just analysing problems but solving them.

• Work directly with the COO and senior partners
• Drive firm-wide strategic initiatives, not just analysis
• Blend data, technology, and business strategy
• Get exposure to private equity operations at a global scale
• Help shape how the firm uses AI, automation, and analytics
• Opportunity to travel and collaborate across offices

This is not a back-office analyst role—this is a front-row seat to decision-making and transformation.

• Break down complex business challenges and turn them into clear plans
• Support leadership in executing high-priority strategic initiatives
• Identify opportunities to improve performance, efficiency, and scalability

• Build analytical models and reporting frameworks
• Transform data into clear, actionable recommendations
• Improve how the firm captures, manages, and uses data

• Lead cross-functional initiatives from idea to implementation
• Coordinate across finance, investment, and operations teams
• Track progress, manage risks, and ensure delivery

• Identify opportunities to leverage AI, automation, and modern tools
• Help implement systems that improve workflows and decision-making

• Prepare executive-level presentations and insights
• Translate complexity into clarity for leadership teams

You’re someone who combines analytical depth with business intuition:

• 6+ years in strategy, consulting, business analysis, or financial services
• Strong experience working with data, reporting, and complex problems
• Advanced Excel skills; experience with tools like Power BI or Tableau
• Bonus: SQL, Python, or exposure to data/analytics tools
• Proven ability to manage projects and influence stakeholders

But just as important:

• Curious, proactive, and solutions-focused
• Comfortable working with senior leadership
• Able to connect dots across teams, data, and strategy
• Thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment

• Direct exposure to private equity strategy and operations
• The chance to lead high-impact projects over time
• A role that evolves with you—grow into a strategic leader
• Influence how a global firm operates, scales, and innovates

This role is ideal if you’re:

• A consultant or analyst wanting to move closer to decision-making
• Someone who enjoys both big-picture thinking and hands‑on execution
• Excited by data, strategy, and building better ways of working

• Walking distance to BART and the Ferry Building.
• 100% Company-paid health insurance for employee and family.
• Paid Health Savings Account (H.S.A.).
• 100% Company-paid Life & Long-Term Disability Insurance for employee.
• Annual discretionary bonus and profit sharing payments.
• Paid professional development classes.
• Team environment and highly diverse workforce.
• 15 company paid holidays & 15 vacation days leave from start of employment.

If you’re excited by solving complex problems and driving real change, and looking for a role where your work directly shapes outcomes not just reports on them, this is it.
