About The Position

The Lock Desk Manager leads our lock desk while staying hands-on in the work. You're still reviewing and verifying lock requests, registering loans with investors, and issuing confirmations, and on top of that you own the health of the desk: monitoring margins and revenue, running the reports that show how we're performing, and serving as our Optimal Blue administrator. You set the standard for accuracy and responsiveness, you're the final word on lock policy, and you make sure pricing and profitability stay protected on every file. It's a player-coach role built for someone who wants to lead without losing touch with the desk.
