At Capco, we're looking for an experienced Managing Principal to help lead and grow our Banking & Payments practice, with a particular focus on large-scale banking transformations, technology migrations, and complex change programs. You'll work with leading financial institutions to navigate significant business and technology change, helping clients modernize their banking platforms, migrate critical systems, and deliver strategic transformation initiatives that achieve measurable business outcomes. This is a senior consulting leadership role that combines banking industry knowledge, program delivery expertise, and strong stakeholder management. While an understanding of banking technology and systems is important, the focus is on leading transformation rather than hands-on technical implementation.
