Experienced Loan Processor (Day Shift)

We are seeking a qualified loan processor to partner with and support our existing lending team. The candidate will be responsible for collecting information internally and structuring this information in line with our documentation guidelines, allowing us to make informed lending decisions and recommendations. Once all of the relevant documentation has been gathered and stored electronically within our secure portal, the loan processor will review client’s documentation in an effort to pre-qualify and determine their options, working collaboratively with the lending specialist to tailor recommendations that will suit the clients short, medium and long-term goals.

The clients will subsequently review and discuss the recommendations made by the lending specialist and decide on the best course of action, choosing a lender and finalising the lending structure.

Following the clients meeting with the lending specialist and once a suitable lender has been chosen, the loan processor will action the client and brokers instructions to prepare the application forms for submission, completing AOL, updating notes, supporting documents, servicing calculations and framing all of the lender specific documents prior to uploading all relevant and completed supporting documents to AOL for submission. Once completed, the lending specialist will then review and submit the loan.

Throughout the loan application process, the remote executive may be asked to follow up lenders for updates and assist the lending specialist with provision of supporting documents in the event that missing information is required.
