About Built

Built’s mission is to connect and simplify doing business in real estate. Built is an AI-powered platform transforming the way real estate is financed, developed, and managed, supporting lenders, owners, and contractors across complex workflows.

Role Overview

As the Lending Lead – Implementations, you will own outcomes for lending client implementations from onboarding through early expansion readiness. You will lead a team of consultants responsible for delivering clean, scalable foundations at go-live and identifying expansion opportunities early in the client lifecycle.

This role operates within an evolving, AI-enabled implementation model designed to reduce manual work, standardize delivery, and enable teams to focus on higher-value, strategic engagement with clients. Success requires strong domain expertise in lending, effective team leadership, and the ability to continuously improve execution within a structured system.

What You’ll Do

Own Lending Implementation Outcomes

  • Ensure clients achieve a clean, scalable foundation at go-live
  • Drive early identification of expansion opportunities (target: within 10 days of go-live)
  • Partner with Account Management to ensure expansion paths are actionable and frictionless

Lead a Persona-Aligned Team

  • Build and manage a team aligned to lending client types (e.g., Community Banks, Enterprise Banks, Private Credit)
  • Develop team members into domain-fluent, consultative practitioners
  • Hold the team accountable to both execution excellence and proactive client engagement

Operate Within and Improve the Implementation System

  • Leverage AI-enabled workflows and automation (e.g., project design, post-call workflows, validation) to reduce manual work and improve consistency
  • Ensure consistent execution of standardized playbooks, tailored through persona-specific approaches
  • Provide structured feedback to improve systems, playbooks, and operating models over time

Drive Metrics-Based Performance

  • Own performance across:
    • Time to Second Value (TT2ndV)
    • ARR onboarded
    • Customer satisfaction (CSAT) and project health
    • % of clients with expansion opportunities identified within 10 days of go-live
  • Use data to identify gaps, improve execution, and drive accountability across the team

Client Leadership & Strategic Engagement

  • Act as a senior point of contact for key lending clients during onboarding
  • Guide clients toward best-practice workflows and future expansion opportunities
  • Elevate engagements beyond task execution to meaningful business impact

Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Partner with Product, Sales, Account Management, and Operations to:
    • Improve implementation workflows and system effectiveness
    • Align on expansion opportunities and client needs
    • Surface product gaps and operational friction points

What We’re Looking For

Experience

  • 7+ years of experience in Commercial Real Estate (CRE) lending or finance (required)
  • Experience leading client-facing teams in implementation, onboarding, or delivery roles
  • Experience operating in SaaS or technology-enabled environments (preferred, not required)

Skills & Capabilities

  • Deep understanding of lending workflows, stakeholders, and operational challenges
  • Proven ability to lead and develop high-performing teams
  • Strong client management and relationship-building skills
  • Ability to operate effectively within structured systems while identifying opportunities for improvement
  • Data-driven mindset with the ability to translate metrics into action
  • Strong communication and leadership presence

What Sets You Apart

  • Ability to move a team from execution-focused delivery to consultative engagement
  • Comfort operating in evolving environments where systems, processes, and expectations are actively improving
  • A practical approach to leveraging automation and AI to improve outcomes (without relying on it as a crutch)

Success in This Role

  • Clients go live with clean, scalable implementations
  • Expansion opportunities are consistently identified early in the lifecycle
  • The team operates efficiently, with reduced manual work and increased strategic engagement
  • Metrics improve across speed, quality, and client experience
