  • 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.
