  • Monitor and improve turn times, productivity metrics, and operational KPIs
  • Conduct second-level file reviews, manage escalations, and resolve exceptions to ensure loan quality and compliance
  • Collaborate with internal stakeholders (loan officers, underwriting, processing) to resolve issues impacting closings
  • Continuously evaluate and enhance closing and post-closing systems and workflows to drive efficiency and reduce manual effort
  • Partner with internal teams to identify opportunities for automation and long-term process improvements
  • Provide training, guidance, and subject matter expertise to team members
  • Ensure adherence to all federal, state, and investor guidelines

  • Strong understanding of mortgage regulatory and compliance requirements
  • Experience leading distributed or remote teams
  • Ability to balance hands-on execution with strategic process improvement
  • Familiarity with mortgage systems (e.g., LOS platforms) and workflow optimization

The ideal candidate:

  • Takes a process-driven, systems-oriented approach to operations
  • Prioritizes scalable, long-term solutions over manual workarounds
  • Thrives in a fast-paced, evolving environment
  • Demonstrates strong attention to detail and commitment to quality
