Our Capital One Strategic Analytics Team
Yes, we're a credit card company. But we're more than that too. We're driven by what our customers want, and how to make their lives simpler.
We're always looking for creative ways to offer digital solutions that make sense for our customers. With your help, we'll build the next generation of banking in Canada based on customer-focused values, compelling products and great engineering.
Working with us
How do we do things at Capital One Canada? We listen - to our people, and to our customers. We change with the times and have adopted a flexible hybrid model (remote and/or in-office). Associates working in the hybrid model are expected to come into the office 3 days a week across Tuesdays and Thursdays, reserving Mondays and Fridays as company-wide virtual days. As was true before the pandemic, expectations of being in the office will be balanced with personal life flexibility.
At Capital One we're committed to diversity, inclusion and belonging. We strive to build a culture where diverse perspectives are valued, innovative ideas are encouraged and inclusive behaviours are embedded in everything we do to positively impact associates. Strive to build a culture where diverse perspectives are valued, innovative ideas are encouraged and to help challenge the status quo and create the best outcomes for everyone.
We're focused on helping associates live well-physically, financially and emotionally. When you join us, we support you and those who are most important to you, offering full coverage for spouses, domestic partners, and dependents. We've designed our benefits program to be flexible, comprehensive and consistent across our organization. From health and fitness center discounts, to training and professional development programs-and much more-you'll discover that Capital One is committed to helping you live your best life.
Capital One Canada is an equal opportunity employer committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment. We consider all qualified applicants and will meet the needs of those requiring reasonable accommodations.
We create roles that allow your problem solving and creativity to shine through
You will join our Toronto office for ~16 weeks in the Fall of 2025 (Sept to December), to work in teams and directly with our internal stakeholders. You will get to work with a team of fellow strategy analysts, along with associates in other job families such as Data Scientists and Product Managers, to identify solutions for problems or processes.
Over the course of each project, you will gather and analyze information, formulate and test hypotheses, and develop and communicate recommendations to business stakeholders.
To give you an idea of what to expect as a Strategy Analyst intern, here are a few project examples:
  • Analyzing trends in fraudulent credit card applications and transactions in order to enhance our suite of models and tools. The goal: reduce fraud costs and minimize negative experiences for our cardholders.
  • Developing a framework through which customers may benefit from having a different card than the one they currently have. The goal: enhancing the overall value provided to the customer while being mindful of the additional costs and credit risk associated with different products.
  • Building a challenger model to an existing model that predicts how much customers are likely to spend on their credit cards. The goal: understanding if a simpler model could capture enough of the business value to justify retiring the complex model.

Be ready to join a community of the smartest people you've ever met, who see the customer first, and want to use their data skills to change banking for good.
