Tbwa Chiat/Day Inc | Director, Strategic Partnerships New Remote (U.S.)

Flex is a growth-stage, NYC headquartered FinTech company that is creating the best rent payment experience.
It's hard to believe that it's 2024 and paying rent on time is expensive, inflexible, and difficult.
We're here to change that!
Flex enables our users to pay rent throughout the month on a schedule that better fits their finances and budget.
Our mission is to empower as many renters as possible with flexibility over their most significant recurring expense.
After deliberately keeping a stealth profile as we built up unprecedented investor support and an enthusiastic user base, we are looking for motivated individuals to help us keep our mission growing.
Will you be a part of the team?
