Why you should join PingLend
PingLend is on a mission to radically change the way credit works for the underbanked: starting with credit. We just wrapped up a Series A less than one year after our seed round and are in ultra-growth mode. PingLend allows almost anyone to get a secured credit card regardless of their credit score by collateralizing assets such as gold, jewelry, watches, etc. This allows PingLend's users to build their credit and qualify for previously unobtainable financial products. Soon we will expand to every type of collateral, across physical and virtual goods as well as launching into uncollateralized credit products.

The Appraisal Manager Role
We are looking for an Appraisal Manager ready to take the next step in their career to help build a fintech unicorn and change the lives of underbanked Americans. The Appraisal Manager will be a vital member of PingLend’s Operations team. We are working on revolutionizing credit by pioneering our novel approach to asset collateralization. Achieving this objective requires that we have efficient and effective processes for handling: onboarding, card issuing, customer support, fraud and so much more.

What does it take to succeed at PingLend and in this role?
Recognition that this is a start-up. The risks are real, budgets are tight, expectations are high and the deadlines are short; Creativity and problem-solving are essential; We want thinkers that execute. Bring a desire to learn, think outside the box, take on responsibilities and challenges outside your comfort zone, push yourself, and become an entrepreneur. The words “that is not my responsibility” do not exist at PingLend. Come prepared to do anything and everything that it takes to build a successful company from scratch; Commit yourself to operational excellence. Come to Pinglend to enjoy the journey and experience of building something great!
