What is Bilt?

Bilt Rewards is the first loyalty program that rewards members on rent and in their neighborhood, no matter where they live.

Bilt Members can earn points and access exclusive benefits on rent payments, condo & co-op fees, and around their neighborhood at local restaurants, fitness studios, rideshare, and more. Ranked the highest-value point currency by top publications, Bilt Points can be transferred 1:1 to major airline and hotel programs, or used towards rent payments, shopping, fitness, and even a down payment on a home. Members also get access to credit-building benefits, member-only experiences, and an Elite Status program.

In partnership with the top multifamily owners & operators across the country, we’ve also created the Bilt Rewards Alliance, a network of 4M+ apartments and homes across the country. Residents who live in the Bilt Rewards Alliance make payments directly through the Bilt Payment Center and get access to benefits including additional earn opportunities on new leases, renewals, and more.

While Bilt Members can use any debit or credit card to earn points and access their benefits, Bilt has partnered with Mastercard and Wells Fargo to create the Bilt Mastercard® - the first and only credit card that lets you pay rent and earn points without the transaction fee.

What’s the role?

As the Director of Consumer Banking, you will be responsible for driving sustainable portfolio growth by attracting customers who engage fully with our suite of products and features. You will be working on the strategy, product roadmap, and day-to-day program management of all consumer banking products.

Your key objective in this role is to increase in-network adoption of our consumer banking products and drive sustainable engagement - that might include developing features or marketing treatments that increase the engagement level of Bilt Reward Members with our different consumer banking products: The Bilt Mastercard, Rent Reporting, and Homeownership services.

In this role, you will…

  • Customer Insights: Deeply understand the needs, behaviors, and profiles of Bilt Rewards Members who live in an Alliance building and/or who engage in Rent Reporting.
  • Feature usage: Monitor product and feature usage to uncover opportunities or gaps.
  • Product Iteration: Strong bias for iterative product and marketing experimentation. Insatiable curiosity on how to improve the customer experience

  • Vendor Management: Identify and filter potential vendors that could help power new consumer banking solutions for customers
  • KPI: You will be accountable for driving KPIs that signal improved customer engagement and cross-sell

In terms of qualifications, we’re seeking:

You are a strategic individual who soaks up data and proactively identifies solutions that address customer and business needs. You are proactive and don’t wait to be told what to do. Although you are comfortable with big-picture strategy, jumping into the details and getting your hands dirty in execution comes naturally to you.

You enjoy partnering across the aisle to drive the best solution possible for your customers.

At Bilt Rewards, we believe in transparency and we do our best to make sure the company and our candidates are on the same page as it relates to compensation. In addition to posting salary ranges for our open roles, candidates should expect to be asked about compensation expectations and requirements early on in their interview process. Our goal is to highlight when expectations and Bilt’s salary range may be out of sync, and work with the candidate to determine whether it makes sense to continue conversations.

We are considering candidates with differing levels of expertise for this position. Leveling will be based upon your experience and performance in the interview process.

Where a new hire falls within a range will be based on their individual skills and experience, and how these competencies compare across other employees in the same role. Bilt's bands are designed to allow for individual compensation growth within the role. As such, new hires typically start at the lower end of the range. Bilt rewards performance and outcomes - should you join the company, you will have the opportunity to grow your salary over time.

The salary range for a Director, Consumer Banking is $160,000 - 170,000 and will be eligible for equity and an annual performance-based bonus.
