Partnerships Ops Associate

About the role

Who is Credible?

Credible is a leading U.S. consumer finance marketplace, transforming the way consumers access and compare financial products. We operate at a consumer and enterprise level. On the consumer side, we help millions of people make smarter financial decisions by comparing personalized, pre-qualified offers across student loans, personal loans, mortgages, credit cards, and insurance — all without impacting their credit score. On the enterprise side, we power financial product comparison and distribution through deep integrations and partnerships with lenders, insurance carriers, and financial institutions, as well as providing marketplace technology and capabilities to third-party partners and distribution channels.

The Partnerships Operations Associate keeps Credible's lender and financial platform partnerships running: onboarding, reporting, payments, contracts and compliance. You are the operational backbone for the Partnerships & Business Development team, freeing senior partners to focus on growth.

You will work across Partnerships, Partner Marketing, Finance, Product, BI, Compliance and Legal. This is an entry-level role with a clear path into Strategic Partnerships Analyst or Partner Operations Specialist roles.
