We're looking for an experienced Loan Processor (Loan Partner 3) who takes pride in delivering an exceptional client experience while keeping loans moving efficiently.

If you are a Mortgage Processor who enjoys taking ownership of your pipeline, communicating proactively, solving problems, and working alongside a supportive, high-performing team, we'd love to meet you.

The Processor is responsible for managing loans from lock through funding, ensuring timely, accurate, and high-quality underwriting submissions and closings. This role works closely with the Loan Officer, Loan Partners, underwriters, borrowers, and third-party partners to proactively manage files, minimize underwriting conditions, and help ensure loans close on time.

Our ideal candidate has:

• 3-5 years of mortgage processing experience (Broker experience is a Plus+ but not required)

• Outstanding verbal and written communication skills

• Excellent attention to detail and a strong sense of accountability and pride in your work

• The ability to manage a high-volume pipeline with accuracy and efficiency

• A proactive self-starter mentality. You’re resourceful, comfortable finding answers on your own, and don’t need constant direction to keep things moving.

• The ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment while maintaining accuracy

• Resourceful and solutions-oriented. You know how to find answers, solve problems, and move things forward independently while recognizing when a question truly needs to be escalated.

We're looking for someone who is coachable, embraces new ideas and processes, enjoys working as part of a team, and takes pride in finding solutions, not just identifying problems.
