What's in It for You
Mission: growth -- this isn't just about managing these functions, but about building a robust and scalable operation. While processes and systems are in place, you will ensure that they continue to run smoothly as we grow -- and grow quickly.
High visibility -- we are a lean organization and you'll have frequent contact with our senior leaders, who all have deep experience in this industry.
Great work environment -- our leaders are passionate about creating the kind of environment that people want to work in, and understand the importance of investing in the right people, infrastructure, culture, technology, and solutions. And we have significant capital to make it happen.
Excellent compensation -- in order to attract and retain top talent, we're offering a competitive salary, bonus incentive program, and generous benefits that start on day one. Benefits include stock options; vacation; medical, dental, and vision insurance; a 401(k) plan; pre-tax spending accounts; educational reimbursement; and more.
More About Your Role
If you're a good fit for this position, you already know most of what this job entails. However, to be sure we're providing a complete picture, here are some details.
Reporting to our Collections Leader, you will lead an internal team and manage relationships with third party outsourcers. While your primary focus will be on portfolio performance in your areas, you also will ensure the smooth growth of both the internal team and our relationships with outsourcers. Within the seven-year period we have projected, it is possible that we will establish additional service centers.
We are slated to launch at the end of March 2008, and from that point we're anticipating quite a ride. You will assume responsibility for portfolio performance as it pertains to these key areas:
Asset remarketing, including disposition and remarketing of all automobile repossessions through third parties such as auction and Internet channels.
Bankruptcy, involving collection and servicing of all automobile bankruptcy accounts, including Chapter 13 and Chapter 7 scenarios.
Deficiency collections, including collections and servicing of automobile loans that previously have been charged off.
You can expect to travel between 30 and 50% of the time, including visiting our corporate headquarters in Manhattan and spending time with outsourcers.
Keys to Success
To excel in this role you will have the ability to keep one eye on the future and the other on day-to-day operations. You also will need to flourish in a fast-paced environment; you won't just be adapting to change -- you will be leading it. In addition, in order to be an outstanding Asset Management Operations Leader, you will:
Embrace analytics and risk management as a proactive approach to optimizing performance.
Be effective at managing multiple activities with competing priorities.
Bring a long-term commitment to helping achieve our vision for the future.
If this sounds like the right mix of challenge and opportunity for you, and you meet the minimum qualifications, we want to hear from you!
