Description

NOT HIRING JUST A PROCESSOR. 

We’re hiring someone who can Own The Loan & Pipeline from Loan Setup to Closing like it’s their business… because around here, it is! 


This isn’t a passthrough role where you just track files… YOU DRIVE THEM HOME! 


You run the playbook and lead the team to the end zone. Every. Single. Time. 


THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR: 

  • People who need instructions to take action 
  • People who think pipeline management is just about checklists 
  • People who wait for things to go wrong before they act 
  • People who can’t communicate with speed, confidence, and clarity… even when stress is high 


WHO YOU ARE: 

  1. A proactive executor who sees the pipeline as a living, moving system and keeps it clean. 
  2. Someone who gets it, wants it, and has the capacity to do it.
  3. Humble enough to own the mistakes, hungry enough to take on more, smart enough to work with the team. 
  4. Tech-savvy, and obsessed with real-time data and communication. 
  5. A cross-functional mind who can switch between strategy and detail without missing a beat. 
  6. Someone who knows that every file represents someone’s life… not just someone’s loan. 

 

WHAT YOU NEED TO WALK IN WITH:

  • Mastery of Arive and lender portals: if you don’t know them like your favorite playlist, don’t apply.
  • Broker-world knowledge: we need processors who are seasoned in the broker world.
  • Tech fluency: if your tabs don’t stay organized, your files won’t either.
  • Unshakeable urgency: There is no such thing as tomorrow; so do it today!
  • Deadline obsession: we don’t miss closing dates. Ever. Period.
  • Speed + Accuracy: 5 borrower conditions or less, CTC 72+ hours before close.
  • Extreme organization: but fast. No perfection paralysis. Done is better than perfect
  • Emotional resilience: this job is not for the soft-skinned or easily rattled.


🧠 THE JOB: Mortgage Loan Processor 

As our Mortgage Loan Processor, you will own the loan pipeline from the moment a file hits Loan Setup to the moment it’s closed. This role demands leadership, decisiveness, sharp communication, and operational precision.

  • Send timely updates at key milestones: Disclosures, Appraisal, Conditional Approval, etc.
  • Own the communication rhythm and manage expectations while keeping the experience positive and professional 


Team Leadership & Coordination 

  • Serve as the central liaison between loan officers and underwriters 
  • Lead weekly pipeline meetings and reallocate resources to avoid bottlenecks
