Competitive benefits and work model flexibility are two of many reasons to join the team

Discover Financial Services is growing across its credit card and bank lines of business, and to meet its needs, the company is looking to fill more than 1,000 customer care center positions by the end of 2022.

Open positions include customer service representatives, cardmember assistance (collections) representatives, underwriters, personal loans specialists, and team leaders.
