  • Develop business cases that articulate client situations and mortgage needs, positioning clients effectively with approved third-party lenders
  • Demonstrate comprehensive knowledge of external lenders' products, policies, terms, rates, and adjudication criteria to match clients with optimal solutions
  • Structure external lending solutions by advising clients on product features, rates, terms, and conditions to ensure alignment with their transition goals and financial capacity
  • Develop documented client transition strategies in partnership with clients, identifying realistic pathways back to traditional RBC financing and achieving financial goals
  • Exercise sound judgment to match clients with the right approved third-party lender based on their unique situation and transition goals
  • Make all mandatory disclosures regarding fees, interest rates, terms, and RBC compensation before referring clients
  • Perform regular nurture calls throughout the client's mortgage term to track progress on their transition strategy and maintain the relationship
  • Collaborate with Mortgage Specialists, Private Banking partners, and other RBC advisors to identify additional client financial needs and opportunities for repatriation
  • Manage all client interactions, documentation, and file submissions with integrity, ensuring full compliance with RBC policies and regulatory requirements
  • Proactively identify and action program maturity leads to bring qualified clients back to RBC for refinancing or mortgage renewal

What do you need to succeed?

Must-have

  • Minimum 2 years of mortgage industry experience or equivalent customer-facing financial services background
  • Strong knowledge of mortgage products, lending criteria, underwriting processes, and home financing options

  • Experience collecting, organizing, and preparing mortgage documentation and supporting materials
  • Knowledge of alternative lending products, external lender underwriting standards, and adjudication processes
  • Proven ability to build trust and maintain long-term client relationships
