Do you enjoy connecting with people, uncovering what they truly need, and turning a conversation into the right financial solution? Join our team as a Loan Sales Representative and help members move forward with confidence.

What You’ll Do

• Welcome members, build trust quickly, and create a comfortable conversation about what they want to accomplish.

• Recommend loan options, insurance products, and other credit union solutions that support the member’s goals.

• Sell with purpose: You connect members with loan and insurance options that make sense for their goals while confidently asking for the business.
• Build a strong file: You collect the information underwriting and loan processors need and record useful notes that explain the request, context, and conversation.
• Keep momentum: You follow up, resolve open questions, communicate next steps, and help prevent avoidable delays.
• Own the goal: You maintain a healthy pipeline, monitor results, pursue new opportunities, and stay accountable for monthly sales expectations.
• Create lasting relationships: You make members feel heard and supported, earning trust that continues beyond a single loan.

Qualifications

• High school diploma or equivalent required; college coursework or a degree in a related field is highly preferred.
