Remote Mortgage Loan Officer; Mississippi

About the team

At Zillow Home Loans, you’ll help reshape how consumers buy, sell, and finance homes while working in a collaborative, high‑energy environment. The Mortgage Loan Officers are part of two specialized lending teams: a high‑volume, phone‑based team and a consultative, market‑based team that builds long‑term partnerships with Zillow Preferred Agents.

You will originate purchase‑focused mortgage loans for customers introduced through Zillow’s ecosystem, guiding borrowers from first contact through funding while delivering a best‑in‑class customer experience. The role is remote with restrictions; your principal place of residence must be located within Mississippi. You may elect to spend some time working at a company office, but you must remain in the designated state unless approved by the company for relocation.
