Indirect Loan Processor II

Indirect Loan Processor II

You independently manage the end-to-end processing of indirect auto loan applications, ensuring files are accurate, complete, and compliant while driving timely funding and a strong dealer and member experience. You are a skilled and reliable lending professional with advanced knowledge of indirect loan processing, known for handling complex scenarios, resolving exceptions, and maintaining high standards of quality, accuracy, and risk awareness.

You take ownership of complex loan files and escalations by collaborating with dealers and internal partners, identifying risks and patterns, and contributing to continuous improvement efforts that strengthen processes, reduce rework, and enhance operational performance.

Maintain an advanced, current understanding of applicable state and federal laws/regulations and internal requirements (including BSA/AML, CIP/OFAC, and related compliance obligations); apply them consistently; and serve as a resource to teammates by interpreting requirements and reinforcing controls throughout the funding process.

Manage a high volume of loan-related communications (inbound/outbound calls, emails, and internal messages) while progressing multiple applications in parallel; prioritize escalations and complex funding scenarios; set clear expectations with partners; and drive resolution to meet service level, dealer experience, and turnaround-time requirements.

Accountable for meeting established quality assurance standards and performance metrics by completing work accurately the first time, following required checklists/controls, meeting productivity and timeliness targets, and promptly correcting errors. Analyze quality results and rework trends to identify root causes, recommend corrective actions, and reinforce best practices with peers.

Identify root causes of dealer/member or operational issues (including recurring documentation defects and funding delays), recommend practical solutions, and lead or support continuous improvement efforts (job aids, knowledge sharing, workflow enhancements, and control refinements) to improve team consistency and throughput.

Deliver consistent, high-quality service to dealers, members, and internal partners by actively listening, confirming needs, explaining next steps in plain language, setting realistic timelines, and following through on commitments. Own escalations and time-sensitive funding issues by coordinating stakeholders, de-escalating concerns, documenting outcomes, and ensuring timely closure.

Review and analyze application data and supporting documentation to ensure consistency, completeness, and compliance; independently clear complex stipulations/conditions; and resolve documentation exceptions (e.g., contract discrepancies, payoff variances, proof-of-income anomalies, insurance/registration requirements). Perform required research and validations and complete accurate system updates with a focus on audit readiness and record retention standards.

Obtain, validate, and track required Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) documentation, when needed, to ensure lien perfection and proper recording of the credit union's interest in collateral; provide guidance on complex title scenarios (e.g., out-of-state titles, dealer payoffs, lien releases, registration holds, and corrections).

Partner with peers and cross-functional teams (e.g., branches, Member Service, Vehicle Services, Dealer Relationship Managers, and back-office areas) to resolve escalations, clear complex conditions, and coordinate efficient handoffs that prevent delays and reduce rework. Act as a point of contact for higher-complexity files and assist with training and knowledge transfer as needed.

Perform advanced post-preparation quality control by auditing executed loan documents and operational reports to verify signatures, dates, required disclosures, document indexing/filing, and procedural compliance. Lead remediation on identified discrepancies (e.g., documentation corrections and dealer follow-up), document resolution, and escalate material exceptions, control breakdowns, or potential loss exposure in accordance with guidelines.
