What We're Doing
At Synctera, we're closing the gap between community banks and FinTechs. Empowering the fastest growing, secure, and scalable FinTech-as-a-Service (FaaS) platform, we tear down integration complexity and build bridges. There are too many FinTechs that need access to a sponsor bank and too few sponsor banks with which to partner, leading to a lack of pricing transparency and less than favorable pricing terms. We’re here to help change that by guiding all parties through the onboarding process and beyond.
We are looking for interesting, curious, wickedly smart people who are ready to jump in and run with our fast-growing team. If you want to have fun at work again, collaborate with some of the sharpest people in the industry, understand the Bank/FinTech ecosystem, and love to win, read on!
You will play a critical role in building successful relationships with our top bank partners. As the Bank Strategic Partnerships Manager, your mission is to build our bank partnerships strategy, originate new relationships where appropriate, and nurture relationships to help our bank partners derive the maximum value from Synctera’s products and services. What puts a smile on your face every day is knowing you will be leading the charge to drive your partners’ adoption on the platform and influence their engagement in our FinTech marketplace ecosystem. You’ll do this by developing strategic goals and objectives, sharing best practices, and identifying new opportunities. Ultimately, it will be your personal accountability for results and willingness to go ‘the extra mile’ for each partner that brings exponential impact.
