Job Description:

Scratch is a new kind of loan servicer and we're changing the way borrowers experience debt. We've brought world-class product and technical thinking to a multi-billion dollar industry that hasn't seen an attempt at a tech solution in well over two decades. We're looking for smart, intellectually curious people to be a part of our Scratch journey. - The Lender Growth and Success team is responsible for Scratch's customer relationships. The team works collaboratively across Borrower Guidance, Product Operations, Product, Legal & Compliance, and Marketing to ensure a smooth and efficient customer experience. Each team member is accountable for developing key program goals, creating growth initiatives, finding new opportunities, and being thought partners/trusted advisors to our customers. The Lender Success team is instrumental in surfacing product and operational customer insights throughout the organization in order to help guide the company's strategy and product development with the customer's voice top of mind. - Who We Are: 80% of Americans have debt: student loans, mortgages, and car payments are a few common types. Once a borrower gets a loan (from either a big bank or a small online lender), the borrower typically works with a third party company, or a "loan servicer," to repay that debt. This relationship can last a long time - whether a decade in the case of many student loans or up to 30 years in the case of a mortgage - and can play a major role in peoples' lives. Scratch is a new kind of loan servicer; we're changing the way borrowers experience debt. We've brought world-class product and technical thinking to a multi-billion dollar industry that hasn't seen significant innovation in well over two decades. What does that mean? It means we make repaying loans as easy as possible for borrowers. What You'll Do: The Partnerships team plays a critical role in enabling Scratch to drive impact. Especially as lenders get increasingly creative in the lending products they offer, Scratch's technology (which can service complex products) makes us uniquely positioned to help lenders give their borrowers the best experience possible. - We're looking for a Partnerships Manager who is comfortable talking to lenders across asset classes and sizes to understand their business needs and to position Scratch as the right servicing solution for their business. In addition to managing new opportunities, this person will continue to manage day-to-day relationships with lenders and asset managers in their book of business. The ideal candidate will have a passion for growing and maintaining revenue. This person is detail-oriented, and needs to be comfortable working cross-functionally in a dynamic environment. In particular, the Partnerships Manager will:

• Drive new business by developing new partnership opportunities for Scratch with lending partners, managing the sales process from warm lead through deal closing
• Manage a portfolio of enterprise client accounts to foster strategic, long-term business relationships
• Oversee cross-functional day-to-day operations to support enterprise clients
• Ensure and enable high-end service delivery and proactively manage partnership strategy
• Engage potential lending partners about their goals and challenges, to ensure the partnership is structured for client success
• Measure and report on lender success to the broader Scratch team
• Contribute significantly to Scratch's growth as we scale our core servicing businessWhat We're Looking For:

Most of us take on debt to help us get ahead, or in many cases, to not fall behind. But for most of us-despite its necessity-once we have debt, it doesn't play a healthy role in our lives. It can be hard to understand, difficult to manage, and unaccommodating to changes in our lives. - This is why we started Scratch. We wanted to reinvent the loan servicing industry, well-from scratch. We wanted to create a world where debt plays a healthier and less taxing role in more people's lives.

Our team is rapidly growing and comes from diverse backgrounds including Google, Dropbox, Amazon, Pinterest, Facebook and Affirm. Our office is based in San Francisco. With a growing community of lenders and borrowers, we think it's time the world knows there's a better way to pay back their loans.
