Description -

Come join HP, the founder of Silicon Valley. At HP, we believe in reinventing industries to drive innovation, growth, and world-changing impact.

The Opportunity

We are seeking experienced results-oriented individuals to join HP’s Corporate Strategy group. This team of strategy professionals is widely respected across HP and regarded as a seeding ground for HP’s future leaders.  We work as a 'meritocracy' that appeals to and rewards high achievers.  Your success paves the way for a rewarding career within Corporate Strategy or entry into one of HP’s businesses, as your network of contacts becomes the "who's-who" across HP's executive ranks.

The Corporate Strategy team identifies and evaluates market segments, products, and business models that drive HP’s growth in current, emerging, and new opportunity areas. As part of this team, you will leverage your prior experience in management consulting / corporate strategy to influence the strategic direction for HP. You will help drive business cases and strategic recommendations for our core and growth businesses and deliver data-driven, insightful recommendations to HP’s management team. You will have the opportunity to work closely with senior leaders on strategic issues in a highly entrepreneurial environment.

This role will have significant interaction across HP Business Unit and Function teams and executive ranks. A successful leader in this role must drive for results with integrity, seek stakeholder-focused solutions, and bring a balance to long- and short-term priorities. The person must be able to work in a collaborative environment; be a self-starter and feel comfortable in an ambiguous, constantly evolving, fast-moving environment of shared accountability.
