You are a senior business growth strategist and enterprise operator with a sharp instinct for data‑driven problem solving and a relentless focus on scaling customer acquisition. You deeply understand customer behaviour and consistently translate growth ambition into measurable, commercial outcomes. You craft clear, persuasive, insight‑led business cases and executive‑ready narratives that mobilize cross‑functional leaders and unlock decisions across the enterprise. You distill complexity into a single, coherent point of view, particularly when the path forward is ambiguous.

Most importantly, you thrive in a high‑bar, problem‑solving culture, working alongside smart, collaborative leaders to build differentiated, scalable solutions that grow and engage priority segments across BMO’s footprint.

Reporting to the Managing Director, Customer Growth, Segments and Partnerships, the Director is accountable for setting the strategy and owning end‑to‑end execution of priority segments to drive accelerated market‑share growth and brand affinity.

You will develop compelling segment strategies and value propositions that establish BMO as the bank of choice and deepen relationships early in the customer lifecycle. You will own cross‑functional execution, partnering across Product, Marketing, Analytics, LOBs, and Frontline to deliver flawless go‑to‑market outcomes. This role leads and develops direct reports to design, recommend, and execute strategic initiatives and partnerships that drive acquisition, cross‑sell, and retention.

• Develops leaders, plans for succession, and fosters a high‑performance culture.
• Comfortable owning ambiguity and making decisions with imperfect data.
• Credible with senior leaders; equally effective deep in execution.
• Data‑driven, customer‑obsessed, and commercially sharp.

• A proven track record owning end‑to‑end growth mandates in complex organizations.
• Deep experience with customer segmentation, analytics, and go‑to‑market execution.
• Experience leading teams and scaling leaders.
• A seasoned enterprise builder with a proven ability to orchestrate complex, cross‑functional execution across Product, Marketing, Analytics, Technology, LOBs, and Frontline to deliver customer acquisition growth at scale.

• Strong quantitative capability to analyze issues, synthesize insight, and deploy strategy into action.
• Ability to prioritize and deliver across multiple high‑stakes initiatives.
