Borrower Success Manager (Remote – Dallas, San Antonio or Phoenix)
Zippy was founded with one mission : to make getting a loan for a manufactured home simple, fast, and fully online. We believe modern manufactured homes are affordable, well-built, eco-friendly, and stylish, but finding a lender who understands this market can be challenging. That's why Zippy focuses exclusively on manufactured home loans, offering a seamless, digital experience.
Headquartered in Dallas, TX, with an office in Tempe, AZ, Zippy provides home loans and insurance to manufactured home buyers throughout the United States. Our remote-first team is spread across cities like Dallas, Houston, Knoxville, Omaha, Philadelphia, Phoenix, and several other states and cities. Backed by institutional investors, we offer competitive pay, stock options, and excellent benefits. At Zippy, we pride ourselves on our commitment to finance happiness through the power of home. We are dedicated to enhancing consumers' financial outcomes and tackling the affordable housing crisis through cutting-edge technology and innovative solutions.
As Zippy's Borrower Success Manager, you'll lead a borrower-facing team responsible for driving loan progress from qualification through approval. Your team of Zippy Guide Associates serves as the primary point of contact for borrowers, community partners, and soon dealer partners – ensuring conditions are satisfied quickly, documentation is complete, and every borrower feels supported from start to finish.
This is a dynamic high-impact leadership role blending people development, operational execution, and performance management. You'll coach and motivate your team to improve borrower engagement, accelerate document collection, and increase conversion – all while upholding compliance and a consistent borrower experience. Your focus will be on effectiveness : how well the team is driving the pipeline forward, resolving blockers, and achieving measurable results.
Note : This team does not handle loan processing directly – their focus is on proactive borrower outreach and condition / document collection that keeps loans moving toward funding.
