Flex enables our users to pay rent throughout the month on a schedule that better fits their finances and budget. Our mission is to empower as many renters as possible with flexibility over their most significant recurring expense. After deliberately keeping a stealth profile as we built up unprecedented investor support and an enthusiastic user base, we are looking for motivated individuals to help us keep our mission growing. Will you be a part of the team?

You will take full ownership, driving strategy, execution, and long-term relationship management to maximize business results for your partnerships. Reporting to the SVP of Business Development & Strategic Partnerships, and working closely with executive leadership and cross-functional teams, you will play a pivotal role in accelerating Flex's growth. This position offers a hybrid work model based in the New York Metropolitan Area or San Francisco Bay Area.
