Now Hiring - Full Time Bilingual Customer Service Representative/Sales (English/Spanish) in Bradenton, FL

Why us?

Imagine you live in the U.S. and earn 40k a year, support a Family, and the car you depend on to get to work won't start and needs repairs or your sister is in the hospital, and she doesn’t have the money to pay for the treatment she needs.

It's unlikely that you have been able to save for unexpected expenses, emergencies, or large purchases. You're a dedicated worker, a responsible provider for your family, and you have a steady job, yet you can't get a loan from traditional financial institutions or even a credit card. We believe this is the reality for an estimated 100 million people in U.S. who are either credit invisible, meaning they don't have a credit score, or are mis scored because they have a limited credit history.

These individuals face challenges getting a loan because traditional lenders often require minimum credit scores, and that's where Oportun comes in. Our mission is Empowering members to build a better future, and we're creating a community of members, employees and partners devoted to the same goal, helping low-income community succeed.
