Director, Neighborhood Dining Partnerships & Strategy
Reporting to : VP, Bilt Neighborhood Rewards
Location : New York, NY
What is Bilt?
Bilt Rewards is the first loyalty program that rewards members on rent and in their neighborhood, no matter where they live.
Bilt Members can earn points and access exclusive benefits on rent payments, condo & co-op fees, and around their neighborhood at local restaurants, fitness studios, rideshare, and more. Ranked the highest-value point currency by top publications, Bilt Points can be transferred 1 : 1 to major airline and hotel programs, or used towards rent payments, shopping, fitness, and even a down payment on a home. Members also get access to credit-building benefits, member-only experiences, and an Elite Status program.
In partnership with the top multifamily owners & operators across the country, we've also created the Bilt Rewards Alliance, a network of 4M apartments and homes across the country. Residents who live in the Bilt Rewards Alliance make payments directly through the Bilt Payment Center and get access to benefits including additional earn opportunities on new leases, renewals, and more.
While Bilt Members can use any debit or credit card to earn points and access their benefits, Bilt has partnered with Mastercard and Wells Fargo to create the Bilt Mastercard® - the first and only credit card that lets you pay rent and earn points without the transaction fee.
