Head of Homebuilder Markets

UrrlyNew York, NY
Onsite

About The Position

Build the institutional capital standard for a massive, under-standardized housing market. A well-capitalized real estate capital platform is creating the rails that let institutional capital reliably fund regional and local homebuilders at scale. The market need is clear: the United States needs more homes, capable builders need more efficient capital, and institutional investors need a governed, data-rich way to trust the asset. This role sits at the center of that gap. This is not a mature-book management seat. You will report directly to the CEO and help define the product, underwriting standard, data requirements, pricing logic, and capital-partner relationships that make homebuilder finance investable on a programmatic basis.

Requirements

  • Markets-up structured credit builder with real product depth, hungry to create a category.
  • Understanding of how capital prices risk, how institutional buyers evaluate assets, and what has to be true before capital will commit at scale.
  • Real structured credit or structured products product depth.
  • Strong market awareness and risk/pricing judgment.
  • Experience with institutional capital, forward-flow, whole-loan, securitization, warehouse, private credit, or comparable credit-market structures.
  • Evidence of building, changing, originating, structuring, or materially driving something important without waiting for a mature playbook.
  • Ability to translate investor requirements into a product, data, underwriting, and accountability standard.
  • Comfort operating directly with a CEO in a lean, high-ownership environment.
  • Strong written and verbal communication with sophisticated capital, credit, and executive stakeholders.

Nice To Haves

  • Homebuilder finance, residential construction lending, builder/developer lending, SFR, bridge, A&D, JV equity, residential credit, or real estate capital markets exposure.
  • Experience negotiating or supporting forward-flow agreements, whole-loan purchases, credit facilities, securitizations, or institutional capital programs.
  • A track record of measurable deal, production, mandate, portfolio, or platform-building outcomes.
  • Prior work in a lean or ambiguous environment where process, standards, and infrastructure had to be built while the business was already moving.

Responsibilities

  • Translate what institutional investors need to trust homebuilder finance into the loan product, underwriting framework, data standard, and operating controls.
  • Stand up forward-flow, whole-loan, structured credit, or comparable capital relationships against that standard.
  • Own the structuring, pricing, eligibility criteria, risk logic, and investor-facing explanation needed to clear the institutional bar.
  • Help turn bespoke builder/developer lending into a repeatable asset capital can understand, price, monitor, and buy.
  • Partner directly with the CEO on market design, capital formation, product strategy, and execution.
  • Build credibility with sophisticated investors by speaking the language of risk, structure, collateral, performance, triggers, reps, warranties, and accountability.

Benefits

  • Base salary: $250,000
  • On-target total cash compensation: $500,000
  • Equity participation: yes
  • Meaningful upside from helping create a category-defining business
