Coley Rau Team Crosscountry Mortgage

Description
Are you tired of chasing business?
Are you somebody who would rather focus on helping clients as they come in instead of constantly hunting for the next lead?
Do you thrive in fast-paced environments where performance matters, urgency matters, and helping clients achieve homeownership is the standard - not the goal?
We're looking for an experienced, licensed Loan Consultant to join one of the top-performing mortgage teams in the Midwest. This is a high-performance mortgage advisor role for someone who knows how to structure deals, build trust quickly, solve problems creatively, and compete every day to deliver results.
Our culture is built around competing, improving, and winning together. We want professionals who bring energy, accountability, urgency, and leadership to the table every single day.
If you're someone who takes pride in getting difficult deals approved, thrives under pressure, and wants to continue growing alongside a winning team, we want to hear from you.
What Makes Someone Successful in This Role:

• Consistently finding ways to get deals approved
• Strong communication and borrower trust
• Close attention to detail
• Fast response and turnaround times
• Competitive drive and accountability
• Confidence in handling complex loan scenarios
• Ability to build relationships with borrowers and referral partners
• Bringing energy, consistency, and leadership to the team every day

Schedule:

• Monday through Friday
• 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM
• One-hour lunch break
• Some evening and weekend coverage expected

Why Join Our Team?
This is not a low-volume, transactional mortgage environment.
You'll be joining a high-performing team with a competitive culture built around growth, accountability, leadership, and winning together. We believe in pushing each other to improve, compete, and succeed while providing the mentorship and support needed to continue growing within the mortgage industry.
This is an opportunity to work alongside a winning team, sharpen your skills, grow your career, and make a real impact in a fast-moving environment where performance matters.
If you're motivated by competition, love helping clients win, and want to be surrounded by driven professionals who compete at a high level every day, apply today.
