Account Manager, Client Services (Chicago)

TheGuarantors is a cutting edge fintech company setting the standard in rent coverage with unrivaled insurance products. With a deep understanding of owner, operator, and renter needs, we believe renters deserve better access to the home of their dreams and operators deserve greater protection and growth opportunities. That’s why we’re leveraging our expertise in real estate and using AI-based technology to help operators qualify renters faster while mitigating the risk of rental income loss. With $5B+ in rent and deposits guaranteed, we work with 9 of the country’s top 10 operators and have been named one of Inc. 5000’s fastest-growing companies, one of Forbes’ Best Startup Employers, and one of Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500.
