Position Description

The Director of Government-Guaranteed Loan Servicing and Liquidation is a senior operational leader responsible for the strategic direction, performance, risk management, and continued build-out of iBusiness Funding's servicing and liquidation platform. This individual will oversee servicing operations for multi-billion-dollar portfolios of SBA 7(a), USDA, and other commercial or government-guaranteed loans and will lead a large, multi-layered organization through managers, team leads, and specialized servicing professionals.

The Director will establish a best-in-class operating model capable of supporting significant portfolio growth, multiple lender and investor relationships, complex regulatory requirements, and high service expectations. The role requires a proven leader who can evaluate the current organization, identify gaps, implement scalable processes and controls, optimize staffing and workflows, introduce technology and automation, and build the management infrastructure required for a high-performing servicing organization.

This leader will serve as a subject-matter expert and executive partner on portfolio management, servicing, special assets, workouts, liquidation, compliance, audit readiness, and operational risk. The successful candidate will bring substantial experience in SBA and government-guaranteed lending, commercial credit and portfolio management, and the leadership of large servicing or lending operations.
