Vendor Management Associate | Sage Loans

This role requires a hybrid schedule and will be based in our South Charlotte, NC Headquarters (Tuesday through Thursday) and work fully remotely on Mondays and Fridays each week.

As a Vendor Management Associate on our Mortgage Operations team, you'll be the voice our clients trust—owning communication and coordination throughout the loan process to ensure a smooth, transparent, and timely experience. In this early-career role, you'll gain hands‑on exposure to the inner workings of the mortgage industry, supporting everything from documentation collection to scheduling closings, all while learning how to navigate key systems like Encompass and work cross‑functionally with teams across the organization.

You’ll be surrounded by teammates who are committed to getting better every day, acting with urgency, and doing the hard things that make our clients’ lives easier. If you’re detail‑oriented, energized by helping others, and excited to grow in a fast‑paced, impact‑driven environment where every second counts, you’ll thrive here. This is your chance to learn the business, contribute meaningfully from day one, and leave the woodpile higher with every client interaction.
