  • Recruit, train, and mentor Sales Agents, ensuring they have the product knowledge and selling skills to succeed.
  • Monitor portfolio health through regular reviews of repayment performance, flagging at-risk accounts and taking corrective action.
  • Review loan applications for compliance with company policies, accuracy of documentation, and risk exposure.
  • Identify untapped market segments and generate new business leads through networking, referrals, and field activities.
  • Prepare performance reports for senior management, using data to guide coaching conversations and strategic adjustments.
