The Senior Manager of Events and Experiences will lead the scaling of Rent Day events, manage vendor relationships, oversee event logistics, and enhance Bilt's brand experiences. This role involves cross-team collaboration and operational efficiency while maintaining budget controls.
What is Bilt?
Bilt is the membership for where you live, transforming rent and mortgage payments into valuable rewards while connecting members with exclusive benefits in their neighborhood.
With every on-time rent or mortgage payment, Bilt Members earn Bilt Points – the industry's most valuable and flexible points currency. They can transfer their points 1:1 to their favorite airlines or hotels with our industry leading travel program, use them for future rent payments, redeem for everyday purchases, or save them for a down payment on a home. Plus, unlock exclusive rewards on the 1st of every month with Rent Day®.
Bilt Members get even more value at their favorite local spots with exclusive Neighborhood Benefits™ at local restaurants, fitness studios, pharmacies, on Lyft rides, and more–over 45,000 merchants nationwide. When they use any linked card with our neighborhood partners, they’ll earn Bilt Points and access special experiences including complimentary items, member events, and more.
While Bilt Members can use many payment methods to earn points and access their benefits, Bilt has a suite of 3 cards offering the richest rewards in the market - and the first and only card suite that lets you pay rent and earn points without the transaction fee.
