What are the responsibilities and job description for the Relationship Manager position at Cross River?
Who We Are
Cross River is a highly profitable, fast-growing financial technology company powering the future of financial services. Our comprehensive suite of innovative and scalable embedded payments, cards, and lending products deliver financial services for millions of businesses and consumers around the globe. Cross River is backed by leading investors and serves the world’s most essential fintech and technology companies. Together with its partners, Cross River is reshaping global finance and financial inclusion.
We are on a mission to build the infrastructure that propels access, inclusion, and the democratization of financial services. While our company has tripled in size over the last three years, our strong sense of purpose led Cross River to be named to American Banker’s list of Best Places to Work in Fintech for the last 6 years. The reason for this success is simple – our nimble and collaborative family culture lives in every member of our growing team. Together we are at the forefront of technology and innovation, and we invite passionate, collaborative, and motivated high performers to join our expanding team.
What We're Looking For
The Relationship Manager will be a motivated self-starter who can work in a fast-paced environment to manage new Enterprise accounts and build upon our existing client partnerships (official title: "AVP, Strategic Partnerships"). They will hit the ground running on high-impact partnerships with exposure to various teams across Cross River. They will be asked to wear many hats and quickly learn our business, ecosystems and clients. Relationship and decision-making skills will be put to the test; and they will need to handle vague and nuanced situations. They will be our front line to our Fintech clients and need to be able to quickly build trust.
Responsibilities:
Cross River is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Cross River does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, non-disqualifying physical or mental disability, national origin, veteran status or any other basis covered by appropriate law.
