What a Manager in Enterprise Transformation does at Visa

The Manager plays a critical role in supporting the overall Enterprise Transformation Office, as we drive large-scale change within Visa, improve organizational efficiency, and lead the strategy and design of complex, cross-functional improvements that impact multiple geographies and stakeholders.

The role is highly visible and has broad reach into a variety of teams across functions. The ideal candidate must have the ability to gain deep subject matter depth on a multitude of topics on short notice and be skilled at the synthesis of multiple sources of information (qualitative and quantitative) to create real and actionable insights for leadership. He or she must stay in front of innovation trends in strategy and transformation and payments and be able to develop an independent point of view on topics in the face of uncertainty and imperfect information.

Best-suited candidates will be persuasive, clear communicators with high emotional intelligence as well as analytical, self-motivated, and able to collaborate well with others from a diversity of backgrounds. This position requires the ability to partner with and support stakeholders in framing and executing analysis to quickly drive to recommendations.
