Regional Sales Manager

We’re on the hunt for Regional Sales Managers nationwide—but let’s be clear: this role isn’t for everyone. We want closers. We want hustlers. We want strategic thinkers who know how to drive revenue. If you can pick up the phone, make the pitch, and sign high-producing Loan Officers, this role was built for you. We offer the best value proposition in the business, from technology, support, marketing, pricing to culture. We have an aggressive bonus plan where the only limit on your earning potential is your output. Your mission is to be a recruiting machine bringing in elite loan officers, branches, branch managers, and regional leaders who will drive performance and growth. You must know the industry cold: analyze data, identify trends, and gather intel that informs sharp, high‑impact sales strategies. You’ll work together with the Head of Sales to hit and exceed aggressive monthly goals, adjusting quickly and decisively when needed. You’ll also own your pipeline, skillfully balancing the recruitment of new candidates while closing top‑tier prospects already in process.
