• Supporting the funding process by coordinating with Sales, Operations, and other partners to ensure complete and accurate merchant packages
• Documenting underwriting decisions in a clear, concise, and audit‑ready manner—especially for larger or more complex transactions
• Managing workload effectively to meet productivity targets, turnaround times, and service level expectations
• Staying informed on market trends, competitive dynamics, and evolving business needs
• Providing underwriting insight and recommendations to cross‑functional partners, including Collections and Operations

• 3–5 years of commercial underwriting experience (equipment finance experience strongly preferred)
• Strong experience reviewing and interpreting business and personal financial statements, including tax returns and P&Ls
• Ability to analyze consumer credit reports from Experian, Equifax, and Trans Union
• Proven experience making risk‑based credit decisions within an authority framework
• Exceptional attention to detail with a commitment to accuracy and quality
• Clear, confident written and verbal communication skills
• Strong organizational, problem‑solving, and time‑management abilities
• Comfortable working in a fast‑paced, production‑driven environment
• Experience with Salesforce and/or Lease Works is a plus
• Ability to handle sensitive and confidential information with discretion
• Willingness to work full‑time onsite in our St. Louis office, with occasional schedule flexibility as needed
