About the role

  • The Executive & Administrative Support VA provides structured administrative, coordination, and client-facing support to Ryan Abraham, Manager of Fixated Funding.
  • The primary purpose of this role is to remove document chasing, follow-ups, system updates, and timeline monitoring from Ryan’s workload so he can focus on client conversations and loan strategy.
  • This role begins after a loan is approved.
  • The VA supports post-approval loan execution, including requesting required documents, coordinating signatures on agreements, tracking completion timelines, and ensuring all required items move forward cleanly and on time through closing.
  • The VA works inside existing systems and SOPs (primarily Smartsheet-driven workflows) and operates directly within active client communication threads.
  • Success in this role depends on strong organization, clear communication, sound judgment, and the ability to proactively close gaps before they become delays.

  • - Minimum of 1 year of mortgage banking or loan administration experience, preferably supporting post-approval loan execution, including document requests, signature coordination, and timeline monitoring.

  • Attention to Detail & Judgment
  • - Able to identify incomplete, incorrect, or unsigned documents before they create downstream delays.
  • - Validates quality rather than “checking the box.”
  • - Exercises sound judgment in determining when to proceed independently versus when escalation is required.
  • - Flags issues early rather than allowing silent failures.
  • Administrative Execution & Reliability
  • - Consistently follows documented workflows and SOPs.
  • - Keeps multiple files moving simultaneously without constant supervision.
  • - Highly organized, dependable, and disciplined in daily execution.
  • Systems, Tools & Technical Comfort

  • - Proficient in Microsoft Excel, Word, and Outlook.
  • - Able to accurately maintain alignment across workflow tools, spreadsheets, and communication logs.
  • - Capable of learning and operating additional loan-related systems and internal tools independently.
  • Stakeholder & Partner Interaction

  • - Able to maintain professional, timely communication across multiple stakeholders.
