• Manage cash flow forecasting and coordinate with warehouse lending / LOC management
• Support audit readiness, tax filings, and regulatory financial reporting requirements
• Evaluate and improve financial systems, processes, and internal controls
• Provide ad-hoc financial analysis for strategic initiatives (new products, M&A, capital allocation)

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with mortgage-specific financial metrics (gain-on-sale, MSR valuation, warehouse utilization)
• Familiarity with Encompass LOS or similar mortgage technology platforms
• Prior experience in a growing or mid-market company where you built processes, not just maintained them
