Own 8–12 real estate and mortgage partnerships, ensuring strong lead performance, partner engagement, mortgage attach rates, and customer experiences. Monitor data, coach agents and loan originators, coordinate launches and training, resolve partnership friction, track performance metrics, escalate issues, and document best practices. The role requires relationship management, account ownership, reporting, and 20–30% travel in support of partnership launches and engagement.
We believe homeownership is one of the most powerful ways people can build long-term wealth. Our mission at Lower is to make that path simpler, more accessible, and more connected.
We’re building a one-stop shop homeownership platform that brings together real estate, mortgage lending, technology, and local expertise. Through Lower’s direct-to-consumer lending business, our nationwide retail branches, and our real estate platform Movoto, we meet people wherever they are in the homeownership journey.
We innovate through technology, but human expertise is what sets us apart. Our approach combines a seamless online experience with experienced people. Whether someone wants to handle most of the process online or work directly with a local loan officer or real estate agent, we’re building a platform that gives them the tools, expertise, and support to move forward with confidence.
About the Role
Lower Connect is the program that pairs our Lower Loan Originators with Movoto Real Estate agents to give customers a smooth, connected experience, while making homeownership easier and more affordable from start to finish.
We're looking for a Manager, Partnership Performance to own a book of 8 to 12 Lower Connect partnerships and help each one produce real results. You'll focus on two things, and both matter equally.
Real estate team performance. Every Movoto partner team should be running at a high level with its online leads. That means agents answering live transfers, following up on time, and working a roster that fits their market. When a team falls short, you dig into the data, flag what you see, and work with team leadership on the fix, with backup from senior leadership on the tougher cases.
Partnership quality. You help keep the relationship between each real estate team and its Lower Loan Originator healthy. You keep both sides engaged as strong partners, track mortgage attach rate, and help them serve the customer as one unified team.
This is a great fit for someone early in their partnership or account management career who loves building relationships, coaching people, and turning data into action, and who wants a clear path to growing into a senior role. The role is based in Austin, TX with 20 to 30% travel to support partnership launches and partner engagement.
