Whether you are recently graduated with your accounting degree or you have been in an accounting role for a couple years, you could be a good fit for this role. We’re looking for a professional communicator who is good at critical thinking and problem solving and is familiar with credits and debits.

About the Role

• Reconcile mortgage-related accounts including escrow cash and liability accounts—accuracy is your superpower.
• Process and record detailed loan-level transactions within our accounting systems. Details matter here, and you’ll help make sure the numbers are always right.
• Issue escrow payments on behalf of borrowers. You're making sure tax bills and insurance premiums are handled without a hitch.
• Respond to email inquiries from internal teams and external partners with clarity and care. You’ll be the go-to for questions related to borrower transactions.
• Assist our appraisal team when borrower appraisal amounts need to be reconciled. Another chance to flex those accounting muscles.

• Reliable and Consistent. People know they can count on you to meet deadlines and keep things moving without a bunch of reminders.
• Detail Obsessed. Typos? Missing cents? Mismatched data? Not on your watch. You spot inconsistencies and fix them fast.
• Service-Minded. You’re helpful, responsive, and respectful—especially when supporting internal teams or answering questions via email.
• Organized. Whether it's managing time, files, or multiple inboxes, you've got a system that keeps everything flowing smoothly.
• Adaptable. Even with structure, things change—and you're cool with shifting gears when needed.
