About the role

We are seeking a strategic and performance-driven Collections Manager to lead, scale, and optimize our collections and default management process. In this role, you will hold primary operational accountability for portfolio recovery performance, team leadership, and loss mitigation strategies across our MCA, Term Loan, and Line of Credit products.

Key Responsibilities

Strategic Leadership & Team Management

• Capacity & SLA Planning: Manage portfolio distribution, resource allocation, and workflow automation to ensure optimal coverage across all DPD (Days Past Due) stages.
• Talent Development: Drive continuous training on advanced B2B negotiation, financial statement analysis, commercial law fundamentals, and de-escalation tactics.

Portfolio Governance & Recovery Strategy

• Department Oversight: Own end-to-end recovery operations across early-stage delinquency (1-30 DPD), late-stage default (31-90+ DPD), and post-charge-off recoveries.
• Policy & Authority Frameworks: Design, implement, and maintain workout, restructuring, settlement, and forbearance policy guidelines. Set and enforce delegation of authority limits for team members.

• Performance Tracking: Analyze key portfolio metrics—including Roll Rates, Cure Rates, Gross vs. Net Recoveries, and Daily ACH Clear Rates—to forecast monthly/quarterly recovery outcomes.
• Executive Reporting: Prepare and present routine portfolio health assessments, loss provision analysis, and recovery trends to C-suite leadership and Risk Committees.
• Feedback Loop to Underwriting: Partner closely with Credit Risk and Underwriting teams to share default insights, identifying early risk signals to continuously refine origination policies.
• Inter-Departmental Synergy: Collaborate with Finance on pre-charge-offs, write-offs, and financial reporting, and work alongside Customer Support and Sales to resolve root-cause payment friction.
• Agency & Attorney Management: Oversee external third-party collection agencies, legal counsel, and asset recovery vendors. Monitor performance against SLAs, commission structures, and recovery benchmarks.
• Legal Enforcement Oversight: Authorize and manage legal escalation processes, including but not limited to proposing litigation strategies centering on suit on breach actions around the country, as well as proposing tactics and strategies for post-judgment enforcement.

• Strategic & Analytical Mindset: Demonstrated success designing collection strategies, managing department budgets/targets, and utilizing data to improve portfolio recovery metrics.
• Legal & Technical Proficiency: Thorough knowledge of UCC filings, working knowledge of commercial litigation, judgment enforcement, bankruptcy proceedings (Chapter 7, 11), and thorough knowledge of loan management/CRM software.
• Executive Communication: Outstanding negotiation, conflict resolution, and presentation skills with the ability to interact effectively with business owners, external counsel, and C-level executives.
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Business Administration, Economics, or a related field (or equivalent managerial experience).
