Head of Residential Capital Markets

Urrly • New York, NY

4d • Onsite

About The Position

Build institutional capital rails for a large, under-standardized residential real estate credit market. A well-capitalized real estate capital platform is building the infrastructure that allows institutional investors to evaluate, finance, and scale exposure to a fragmented residential capital market. The opportunity is large. The need for capital is clear. The institutional standards required to make the asset scalable are still being formed. This is not a mature-book management seat. This is a builder role for someone who can help define the product, underwriting framework, data requirements, pricing logic, investor materials, and capital-partner relationships that make this asset class investable on a programmatic basis. The right person will bring real structured credit or institutional capital markets depth, along with the judgment to help turn a fragmented credit market into a repeatable asset that institutional capital can understand, price, monitor, and buy.

Requirements

• Real structured credit, structured products, or institutional capital markets product depth.
• Strong market awareness and risk/pricing judgment.
• Experience with institutional capital, forward-flow, whole-loan sales, securitization, warehouse lines, private credit, credit facilities, or comparable credit-market structures.
• The ability to translate investor requirements into product, data, underwriting, reporting, and accountability standards.
• Evidence that you have built, changed, originated, structured, or materially driven something important without waiting for a mature playbook.
• Comfort operating in a lean, high-ownership environment with senior executive stakeholders.
• Strong written and verbal communication with sophisticated capital, credit, and executive audiences.
• The ability to simplify complexity without losing technical credibility.
• Good commercial instincts around what investors need, what creates friction, and what will or will not clear an institutional investment committee.

Nice To Haves

• Residential credit, RMBS, MBS, SFR, bridge lending, construction lending, real estate private credit, asset-based finance, specialty finance, or real estate capital markets exposure.
• Experience negotiating or supporting forward-flow agreements, whole-loan purchases, credit facilities, securitizations, warehouse lines, 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.
• Experience creating investor materials, credit narratives, eligibility frameworks, collateral stratifications, performance reporting, or comparable institutional diligence materials.
• Comfort working directly with founders, CEOs, CIOs, credit heads, portfolio managers, structurers, and institutional capital partners.

Responsibilities

• Translating what institutional investors need to trust a residential credit asset into a product, underwriting framework, data standard, eligibility criteria, and operating controls.
• Standing up forward-flow, whole-loan, structured credit, warehouse, private credit, securitization, or comparable capital relationships against that standard.
• Owning the structuring, pricing, eligibility criteria, risk logic, and investor-facing explanation required to clear the institutional bar.
• Helping turn a fragmented, bespoke credit market into a repeatable asset that institutional capital can evaluate, finance, scale, monitor, and buy.
• Partnering with senior leadership on market design, capital formation, product strategy, investor development, and execution.
• Building credibility with sophisticated capital partners by speaking the language of risk, structure, collateral, performance, triggers, reps, warranties, servicing, and accountability.
• Helping determine what data, reporting, controls, and monitoring standards are required for institutional investors to gain comfort with the asset.
• Working across product, credit, underwriting, operations, and executive leadership to turn market requirements into a practical operating model.
