• Conduct interviews and counsel borrowers and lenders on agency practices, assessing needs and identifying additional support resources when appropriate.

• Maintain accurate, up-to-date records across agency systems (LTrack, CAFS, and Forgiveness Platform) to ensure data integrity and operational efficiency.

• Review and process trailing documents, associate files appropriately, and make recommendations on transaction requests per agency SOPs and guidelines.

• Utilize Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Access, Outlook), Qterm, and the Guaranty Purchase Tracking System (GPTS) for daily tasks.

• Bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution (additional experience may be considered in lieu of a degree).

• 3+ years of experience in loan administration, financial analysis, or a related field.

• Working knowledge of loan documentation such as financial statements, credit instruments, and related records.

• Must be authorized to work for any U.S. employer without visa sponsorship.
