Strategy & Operations Manager

Job Description

About Monet Bank

Monet Bank is pioneering the future of banking and money movement—faster, cheaper, and crypto-. The passage of the Genius Act has enabled a future we want to explore where interchange fees and inefficient payment rails may be replaced with a modern, programmable alternative powered by stablecoins.

At our core, we believe Monet Bank is the essential bridge between crypto and traditional finance (TradFi).

As a profitable, well-capitalized Texas state, FDIC-insured bank, Monet sees the fundamental inefficiency of the 2-3% card network payments and seeks to build a strong team to understand and pursue the future of money and banking.

See our open positions below if you want to work on the new frontier of banking projects like a stablecoin-based payment that would empower merchants to reclaim margins, Fintechs to operate cross-border at scale, and tech giants to embed crypto into their platforms without friction.

Role Overview

We\'re seeking a dynamic Strategy & Operations Manager with a consulting background—ideally from a top firm like Oliver Wyman—to drive strategic initiatives in our early-stage fintech startup. This role is pivotal in building our foundation : from crafting business cases and analyzing market opportunities to assessing talent, refining product vision, and managing financing / venture negotiations.

You\'ll join us in helping to build a digitally- bank from the ground up, contributing directly to rearchitecting banking for the digital in a hands-on, foundational capacity.

As an early hire, you\'ll wear multiple hats in a fast-paced environment, collaborating directly with leadership to operationalize our stablecoin-powered payments infrastructure.

If you thrive on ambiguity, excel in high-stakes problem-solving, and have a passion for fintech / crypto innovation, this is your opportunity to build the future of digital money.

We\'re targeting profiles similar to Engagement Managers at leading consultancies, who excel in leading cross-functional teams, managing end-to-end client engagements, and delivering high-impact strategy and operations projects.

Key Responsibilities

• Build Business Cases and Analyze Opportunities

Develop comprehensive business models, conduct market research, and evaluate growth opportunities in stablecoin adoption, merchant payments, and cross-border fintech. Identify inefficiencies in TradFi and propose crypto- solutions, leveraging due diligence expertise to assess risks and potential.

Assist the executive team in term sheet reviews, investor communications, financing strategies. Support capital raises by preparing pitch materials, financial projections, and due diligence.

Tackle ad-hoc initiatives, such as competitive analysis, or partnership development, applying structured problem-solving and oversight typical of an engagement manager at a leading consulting firm.

Scout, evaluate, and onboard top talent across engineering, product, compliance, and sales. Leverage your network to attract high-caliber professionals from consulting, fintech, and crypto spaces, applying rigorous assessment frameworks from consulting engagements.

Facilitate seamless communication and alignment across internal teams (engineering, product, sales) and external partners (merchants, tech giants, regulators). Manage relationships with investors and key stakeholders, ensuring clear, consistent messaging.

Streamline internal processes, from compliance workflows to partnership integrations. Monitor key metrics (e.g., transaction volumes, merchant adoption) and drive data-informed decisions, overseeing day-to-day operations to ensure seamless delivery.

Work with engineering, legal, and sales teams to launch pilots with merchants, tech giants, and fintechs. Facilitate stakeholder alignment in a startup setting, leading teams through complex projects as you would in a consulting engagement.

Qualifications

5+ years in management consulting at a top firm (e.g., Oliver Wyman, McKinsey, BCG, Bain), ideally as an Engagement Manager or equivalent, with exposure to digital assets, fintech, and payments.

Entrepreneurial spirit, comfort with ambiguity, excellent communication (written / verbal), and a bias for action. Ability to thrive in a remote / hybrid startup environment while maintaining the structured rigor of consulting.

What We Offer

Be a foundational hire shaping a $1B-capitalized bank disrupting trillions in payments, with the unique chance to join us in building a digitally- bank from the ground up.

Competitive compensation linked to upside, performance bonuses, and comprehensive benefits (health, 401k, etc.).

Innovative, collaborative team passionate about programmable money. Flexible work, professional development, and exposure to cutting-edge fintech.

If you\'re an Engagement Manager at a top consulting firm and are ready to transition from consulting to building a revolutionary fintech company, apply now.

Send your resume and a brief note on why Monet excites you.
