Escrow assistants are crucial to our industry‑leading success. If you can work well under pressure, provide excellent customer service, and understand and apply escrow principles, being an escrow assistant for Cottonwood Title in one of our Salt Lake offices is an excellent fit for you.

Cottonwood Title has been around since 2000 and has about 125 employees in eight locations along the Wasatch Front. We are known for our expertise, team‑first environment, and robust customer base. With us, you will learn or expand upon your title and escrow knowledge.
