Loan Processing Manager
Truehold is one of the nation’s leading platforms at the intersection of real estate and finance, with 200+ employees across 15+ markets. As we continue to scale, we’re building a best-in-class mortgage operation focused on DSCR and investor lending, combining institutional rigor with startup speed.
We’re hiring a Processing Manager who operates as both a high-performing individual contributor and a hands-on team leader. This is a player-coach role - you will actively manage and process loan files while also leading, coaching, and holding a team accountable to performance, quality, and speed metrics. We’re looking for someone who thrives in a metrics-driven, high-volume environment and knows how to drive output, enforce standards, and move pipelines forward without sacrificing accuracy.
What You’ll Own
Team Leadership & Performance Management
- Lead, coach, and develop a team of processors in a high-volume, KPI-driven environment
- Set and enforce expectations around turn times, condition cycles, file quality, and productivity
- Monitor performance across key metrics and hold team members accountable to SLAs and production targets
- Identify performance gaps and take action quickly through coaching, training, or process changes
- Establish a culture of urgency, ownership, and accountability
Loan Execution (Player-Coach)
- Personally manage and process DSCR and investor loan files end-to-end
- Review and validate borrower, property, and third-party documentation
- Calculate and assess DSCR metrics, rental income, and cash-flow inputs
- Submit clean, well-structured files to underwriting and drive conditions to clear-to-close
- Step in on complex or escalated files to keep deals moving and unblock the team
Pipeline & Operations Management
- Oversee team pipeline to ensure speed-to-close, SLA adherence, and minimal bottlenecks
- Proactively identify and resolve issues that could impact closing timelines or borrower experience
- Maintain strong communication across loan officers, underwriting, and capital partners
Process, Systems & Scale
- Build, document, and refine SOPs, workflows, and condition management frameworks
- Establish and track KPIs, SLAs, and quality benchmarks
- Identify inefficiencies and implement solutions to increase throughput and reduce defects
- Support onboarding and training of new processors as the team scales
- Partner on LOS optimization, lender portal workflows, and tooling decisions
What Makes Someone Successful Here
- You’ve operated in a true production environment - not just managing, but producing
- You’re comfortable holding people accountable and driving performance against metrics
- You understand that speed + accuracy both matter - and know how to enforce both
- You step into problems quickly and don’t let files or people stall
- You’ve worked with DSCR / investor loans and understand the nuances
- You thrive in an environment that is fast, evolving, and performance-oriented
Requirements
- 4+ years of mortgage processing experience with strong DSCR / investor loan exposure
- Proven experience in a player-coach or team lead capacity
- Deep understanding of wholesale broker workflows and lender portal submissions
- Strong experience with DSCR calculations, rental income analysis, and investor guidelines
- Track record of managing pipeline volume while maintaining quality and timelines
- Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills
Nice to Have
- Experience in non-QM / non-agency lending environments
- Experience in a scaling or high-growth mortgage platform
- Prior experience building SOPs, QA frameworks, or training programs
What Success Looks Like
- Team consistently hits turn time, SLA, and production targets
- Files move quickly with low defect rates and fewer condition cycles
- Processors are held accountable and improving over time
- Pipeline remains clean, organized, and moving toward close
- Processing evolves into a scalable, metrics-driven function
