• Build and maintain strong relationships with REALTORS, lenders, clients, and other referral partners.
• Contribute to the continued growth of Suncoast One's Bradenton/Manatee market through excellent service, relationship development, and business-development activity.
• Work collaboratively with the Bradenton/Manatee team and other Suncoast One offices.

• Familiarity with Bradenton/Manatee and the surrounding Manatee County/Southwest Florida real estate market is strongly preferred.
• Existing relationships with REALTORS, lenders, builders, attorneys, or other potential referral sources are highly valued.
• Ability and desire to develop new business relationships is highly valued.
• Experience with Qualia or comparable title-production and closing software is beneficial.
• Leadership ability or the potential to take on greater responsibility in the future is valued but is not required for this position.

At Suncoast One, we believe great title work and a great client experience should go together. Technical expertise matters, but so does how people are treated throughout the closing process.

We place a high value on communication, professionalism, responsiveness, relationship building, teamwork, accountability, and treating everyone involved in the transaction well.

This position is currently for an Escrow Officer/Title Closer working with our established Bradenton/Manatee team and leadership.

Suncoast One continues to grow, and we value people who want to grow with us. A strong performer who demonstrates leadership ability, operational judgment, excellent client service, and the ability to develop referral relationships may have opportunities for increased responsibility and leadership as the company evolves.

Experienced closers with an established professional following or portable book of business are especially encouraged to apply; however, an existing book of business is not required for an otherwise strong candidate.

Suncoast One Title & Closings offers an opportunity to join an established, respected Southwest Florida title company with a relationship-focused culture and continued plans for growth.
