Shaping the Future of Lending

With 30 years of fintech leadership, Origence empowers credit unions with innovative SaaS lending solutions that make lending more accessible, efficient, and competitive. We invest in our people and foster a culture of innovation, ownership, and continuous improvement. As we help shape the future of lending, we're leveraging AI to enhance the way we work and create value for our clients, and we're seeking individuals who are excited by emerging technologies and eager to use them responsibly to solve problems and drive impact.

The Sr. Director of Consumer Marketing & Lead Acquisition is responsible for developing and executing strategies to acquire, convert, and retain consumer refinance customers. This role leads lead-purchasing strategy, digital customer acquisition, vendor and affiliate relationships, marketing analytics, and conversion optimization to generate profitable funded-loan volume while maintaining strong consumer compliance and brand standards.

The Origence Mindset

At Origence, we are self-aware, adaptable, and relentlessly focused on creating meaningful impact. We think like owners, embrace complexity and ambiguity, challenge conventional thinking, and continuously pursue smarter, more effective ways to solve problems and advance the business. If this mindset reflects who you are, you may be exactly who we're looking for.

Please note, this position will follow a Hybrid schedule with a minimum of 4 days in the office/week

How You'll Contribute:

Lead Generation & Customer Acquisition

  • Develop and manage consumer acquisition strategies across purchased leads, paid search, paid social, affiliate networks, lead aggregators, retargeting, email, direct mail, and other performance channels.
  • Identify, evaluate, negotiate with, and manage third-party lead providers and marketing partners.
  • Establish lead-buying criteria, pricing thresholds, volume allocations, and quality standards by source, product, geography, credit profile, and customer segment.
  • Optimize cost per lead, contact rate, application rate, approval rate, funded-loan conversion, customer acquisition cost, and contribution margin.
  • Monitor lead duplication, fraud, consent, freshness, exclusivity, and source quality; suspend or reallocate spend when performance falls below established thresholds.

Digital Marketing & Campaign Management

  • Lead performance marketing across search engine marketing, social media, display, affiliate, email, SMS, and remarketing channels.
  • Plan and manage the consumer marketing budget, forecasts, pacing, and channel mix to achieve volume and profitability targets.
  • Partner with creative, compliance, sales, operations, and technology teams to launch accurate, compelling, and compliant campaigns.
  • Oversee agencies and marketing technology vendors, ensuring clear deliverables, measurable outcomes, and disciplined spend management.

Funnel & Conversion Optimization

  • Own the consumer journey from lead receipt through contact, application, approval, closing, and funded loan.
  • Analyze funnel leakage and implement initiatives to improve speed-to-lead, contact rates, application completion, document collection, approval, and funding.
  • Design and manage A/B tests for messaging, landing pages, forms, offers, call strategies, nurture campaigns, and customer experience.
  • Collaborate with sales and operations leaders on lead routing, staffing, service-level expectations, scripts, follow-up cadence, and performance accountability.

Analytics, Reporting & Forecasting

  • Build executive dashboards and reporting by source, campaign, vendor, cohort, channel, and customer segment.
  • Prepare weekly and monthly performance reviews with insights, forecasts, risks, and recommended actions.
  • Use attribution, cohort, profitability, and lifetime-value analyses to guide investment decisions.
  • Ensure lead, campaign, CRM, and funded-loan data are accurately captured and reconciled across systems.

Compliance & Risk Management

  • Partner with Legal and Compliance to ensure campaigns, disclosures, lead sources, outreach practices, and vendor activities comply with applicable consumer lending, privacy, telemarketing, advertising, and consent requirements.
  • Maintain appropriate vendor due diligence, documentation, monitoring, and escalation procedures.
  • Promote fair, transparent, and responsible marketing practices across all consumer acquisition channels.

  • Cost per lead and cost per application
  • Contact rate, application rate, approval rate, and funded-loan conversion rate
  • Cost per funded loan and customer acquisition cost

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
