About Unlock

Unlock’s mission is to unleash the power of home equity to enrich people’s lives. We do this through a financial solution called a Home Equity Agreement or HEA, an entirely new way to access and utilize home equity. We’re not a lender, so there are no interest charges or monthly payments and homeowners with poor credit or high levels of debt can still qualify. We're beyond passionate about helping our customers build greater financial resiliency. We are mission driven, consumer centric and our products are designed for the way homeowners want to live their lives today - with flexibility and control.

This is a unique opportunity for someone passionate about credit risk to play a critical role in shaping our risk management capabilities.

As an RRA, you will be responsible for supporting the development of robust risk management frameworks, with a primary focus on credit risk and reporting. You will work closely with risk leadership to create and maintain reporting tools, track risk metrics, and analyze portfolio performance.

Regulatory Compliance Support: Ensure that risk reporting adheres to relevant regulations and supports internal compliance and audit requirements
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work with product, finance, and operations teams to ensure alignment on risk management processes and reporting
