A mortgage processing manager directs the workflow and procedures of the loan processing team for residential real estate mortgages. They are responsible for recruiting, hiring, onboarding, training, motivating, and managing all members of the mortgage processing team, and ensuring that all team members adhere to regulatory compliance guidelines. Mortgage processing managers act as sales managers that set daily, monthly, quarterly, and yearly goals for the department and interface regularly with team stakeholders to assure the mortgage closing transaction progresses smoothly. They typically work full-time in an office environment at a mortgage lending institution, bank, or credit union, or at a mortgage company.
