Robert Half

Job Description

Job Description

Ready to take on a high-impact leadership role in commercial real estate finance? We’re looking for a hands-on, strategic Director of Portfolio Management to help lead a growing portfolio of performing CRE loans while mentoring talent, strengthening borrower relationships, and helping shape best-in-class portfolio management practices.

This role is ideal for a strong real estate finance Director of Portfolio Managment professional who enjoys being both in the details and at the table —someone who can assess asset-level performance, spot risk early, navigate borrower requests and modifications, and turn portfolio insights into smart, timely action. You’ll work closely with senior leadership and key internal partners across originations, underwriting, servicing, legal, and loan operations.

Beyond portfolio oversight, this is a chance to make a real mark by improving reporting, streamlining processes, and bringing a forward-thinking approach to technology, automation, and team development.

What we’re looking for:

  • 8+ years in commercial real estate lending, credit, portfolio management, asset management, or related experience
  • Direct experience managing a performing CRE portfolio
  • Strong borrower-facing, credit, and negotiation skills
  • Exposure to modifications, restructurings, troubled credits, or lender remedies
  • Experience mentoring and managing junior professionals
  • A proactive, analytical, and solutions-oriented mindset

If you’re looking for a visible leadership opportunity where you can influence the portfolio, the team, and the platform, this is a compelling next step. Fantastic culture and great office location. Comp range is 175K-225K in base + bonus + full benefits. 4 days/week in the office in Montgomery County. To apply to this role please do so through this posting or reach out to Caren Bromberg Bach on LinkedIn.

• 10+ years of experience in commercial real estate lending, portfolio management, or related credit leadership roles.
• Strong background in evaluating commercial real estate loans, including analysis of cash flow, collateral, borrower performance, and market trends.
• Demonstrated ability to manage loan modifications, restructuring discussions, covenant matters, and early-stage credit issues.
• Experience leading or mentoring professionals, with a track record of improving analytical quality and team performance.
• Advanced skills in financial analysis, financial modeling, budgeting, and variance interpretation.
• Ability to communicate complex portfolio and credit matters clearly to senior stakeholders and cross-functional partners.
• Familiarity with portfolio reporting, risk rating processes, and control-oriented management practices within a banking or lending environment.
• Proficiency in using technology and data-driven tools to improve reporting, monitoring, and operational workflows.
