acting as their main point of contact and helping them understand the steps, requirements, and timelines involved.
- Collect, review, and validate all required documentation to support mortgage changes—such as product switches, adding or removing account holders, or restructuring account setups—ensuring accuracy and compliance with underwriting and Bank policies.
- Prepare complete, well‑organized files for lending and underwriting review, clearly summarizing client needs, requested changes, and supporting documentation to enable timely decision‑making.
- Provide proactive, ongoing communication, keeping clients informed at every stage of their file—from initial request through underwriting decisions to funding—ensuring clarity, transparency, and a smooth client experience.
- Coordinate closely with internal partners, including Fulfillment, Underwriting, and Operations teams, to ensure files move efficiently through each stage and that any issues or missing information are resolved promptly.
- Manage a high volume of files simultaneously, each at different stages in the process, while maintaining strong attention to detail and ensuring all timelines and service standards are met.
- Communicate lending and file decisions to clients in a clear and supportive way, explaining outcomes, next steps, and any additional requirements.




- Collaborate with sales partners and advisors to align on client needs, provide updates, and ensure a seamless experience across teams.
