- Strategy development: support in defining our strategy: what we want to do, and when, how and where we want to do it, including by
- Conducting market/industry studies and continuously monitoring and analysing competitor business models and product portfolios in key markets
- Developing analytical and conceptual frameworks to help leadership prioritise potential strategic initiatives and new sub-business/products

- Identifying Careem’s value proposition for existing and new cases, including product, user experience and commercial value proposition
- Identifying areas where Careem Pay needs strategic partnerships or investments to meet licensing, tech, commercial or operational objectives
- Strategy execution: implementation of key strategic projects (e.g., product launches, market launches, partnership implementation), including by
- Working with POCs across legal, commercial, product, engineering, marketing, regulatory, compliance, and other functional areas to achieve milestones
- Conducting required analyses including benchmarking, market size assessments, user surveys, business plans, etc.
- Ensuring project management and delivery against milestones
- Developing progress updates for Careem Pay Board and other leadership groups
- Corporate development: provide strategic support to our inorganic growth efforts spanning mergers, acquisitions, and strategic investment opportunities, including by

- Conducting research and strategic analysis of potential targets, as and when needed, to inform due diligence and valuation
- Working with M&A team to drive the investment process from identification to closure
- Developing progress updates for Careem Pay Board and other leadership groups
In return, you’ll gain massive learning opportunities in the fintech space; exposure to multiple functions including tech, commercial, operations, growth, regulatory and compliance; and the chance to be part of a uniquely well-positioned fintech start-up within the supporting infrastructure of an established company.
**What you'll need**
- Top-tier educational background and a minimum of 3 years of relevant professional experience within a leading fintech, bank or management consulting firm

- Willing to get hands dirty - this role involved both strategy and implementation
- Action-oriented
- Willing to take risks and make quick, informed decisions
- Self-starter with high level of ownership and limited need for oversight and support
