Business Strategist

Who We're Looking For

We're looking for a Business Strategist to bring analytical rigor to how Fanatics TCG makes key product and commercial decisions. This is an individual contributor role for someone coming out of management consulting, user research, or a similar analytically demanding environment - someone who is equally at home building a bottoms-up financial model and presenting a clear recommendation to senior leadership. You'll work directly with studio leadership and cross-functional partners to size opportunities, pressure-test assumptions, and turn complex data into decisions.

Responsibilities

• Build the financial and analytical models that underpin portfolio strategy, release planning, and investment prioritization, including business case development, scenario modeling, and forecast analysis
• SIZE and EVALUATE new product opportunities, sales formats, and business models, synthesizing market data, player behavior, and competitive intelligence into structured go/no-go recommendations
• Develop and maintain frameworks for tracking portfolio health, product performance, and commercial outcomes across the TCG business
• Synthesize qualitative and quantitative inputs - player research, retailer data, market trends - into clear, concise materials for senior leadership decision-making
• PARTNER with game design, product, and commercial teams to ensure strategic analysis is grounded in operational reality and translates into actionable plans

Qualifications & Experience

• 4–7 years of experience in management consulting, investment banking, private equity, or corporate strategy
• Exceptional financial modeling and quantitative analysis skills - able to build complex models from scratch and defend every assumption
• Strong structured thinking: you break ambiguous problems into clear frameworks and know how to get to a recommendation with incomplete information
• Polished written and verbal communicator; experienced distilling complex analysis into crisp executive-ready materials
• Genuine curiosity about or experience in trading card games, collectibles, gaming, or fan-driven consumer categories is a plus
