what is CRED? CRED is an exclusive community for india’s most trustworthy and creditworthy individuals, where the members are rewarded for good financial behavior. CRED was born out of a need to bring back the focus on a long lost virtue, one of trust, the idea being to create a community centered around this virtue. a community that constantly strives to become more virtuous in this regard till they finally scale their behavior to create a utopia where being trustworthy is the norm and not the exception. to build a community like this requires a community of its own; a community special in its own way, working towards making this vision come true. here’s a thought experiment: what do you get when you put a group of incredibly passionate and driven people and entrust them with the complete freedom to chase down their goals in a completely uninhibited manner? answer: you get something close to what we have at CRED; CRED just has it better. You’ll play a pivotal role in leading CRED's partner ecosystem across products, becoming the face of CRED to some of India’s top consumer brands. You will lead high-stakes partnerships, drive product adoption, and enable new growth through strategic merchant alliances. As a core part of the merchant-led growth (mlg) strategy, you’ll shape how millions engage with CRED. what is CRED?
