The impact you'll make:
A customer has paid on time for months, and Mission Lane notices. Their credit line grows, and the app lays out what they can do next. That moment comes out of Portfolio Management, where credit line decisions and the programs that recognize a customer's progress are designed and refined.
The Principal Delivery Manager, Portfolio Management shapes how that work gets planned, sequenced, and delivered. Your puzzle is deciding how to deliver while the best structure is still being discovered, keeping momentum and rigor in balance.

Delivery discovery for multi-team initiatives, so large commitments are scoped and de-risked before work begins
Coordination across every team Portfolio Management touches, with dependencies and unknowns surfaced early and complex cross-team problems identified proactively and driven to a solution
The engagement model for Portfolio Management, covering execution planning, release planning, and how teams stay in step with each other and with executive leadership Delivery standards for Portfolio Management, built from the themes you see across its work Informal guidance for fellow Delivery Managers as delivery practice takes shape You'll thrive in this role if:

You make sound sequencing and priority calls as the picture develops, and you explain your reasoning clearly.
You partner with executive leadership on delivery trade-offs and bring a clear recommendation to each conversation.
You are a recognized voice on delivery practice. Leaders turn to you when a delivery question needs a clear answer, and you help define the metrics that show how delivery is performing.

About Mission Lane :
Founded in December 2018, Mission Lane is a purpose-driven fintech company based in the U.S., with headquarters in Richmond, Virginia.
It all started with a realization: nearly fifty percent of the adult population in the U.S. doesn’t have access to a clear line of credit. Most traditional credit card companies either overlook or overcharge this group because they have less-than-perfect credit scores or no scores at all. We decided this just wouldn’t do.
In partnership with our sponsor banks, we offer credit cards under the Mission Lane brand name, with better, clearer terms, and a more refined customer experience than the alternatives available to people working hard to improve their credit. To date, over four million consumers have chosen Mission Lane , earning high customer ratings on Credit Karma for its market segment and industry leading Net Promoter scores.
Mission Lane has cumulatively raised over $600 million of equity from leading investors, including Invus Opportunities, QED Investors, LL Funds, funds affiliated with Oaktree Capital Management, and other leading investors.
Our commitment to a workplace built on respect and dignity is guided by our core value of Unity. We believe that everyone plays a vital role in our shared purpose, and we actively cultivate an environment where all individuals have the opportunity to do their best work. By fostering a culture of empathy and collaboration, we create a strong sense of belonging and support for every team member.
