Macdonald & Company is proud to partner with a leading private real estate lender and alternative investment manager that has originated over $7 billion in loans and currently services a portfolio exceeding $2 billion. As the firm continues to expand its presence across the Southwest, it is seeking to appoint a Director of Loan Originations to drive lending activity across the Arizona market.

  • Conduct initial borrower and credit screening to assess deal viability and ensure alignment with the firm’s underwriting guidelines.
  • Structure loan terms and gather the documentation required to advance transactions through the underwriting process.
  • Work closely with internal credit, legal, and operations teams to ensure loans progress efficiently from screening through closing and funding.
  • Serve as the primary relationship manager for borrowers and referral partners, fostering long-term relationships and repeat business.
