Junior Secondary Marketing Analyst

About the role

This is an entry-level career-track position serving as the right-hand support to the SVP of Secondary Marketing and the Head of Mortgage Lending. You will be deeply involved in the data, learning how to manage a multi-million dollar loan pipeline and how interest rate hedging works in real-time.

Responsibilities

• Provide direct administrative and analytical support to the SVP and CEO on high-level secondary marketing projects.
• Prepare daily market briefings and internal reports used for executive decision-making.
• Manage the daily flow of rate lock requests from our sales team.
• Ensure every lock is mathematically accurate and meets specific program guidelines.
• Aid in troubleshooting pricing discrepancies with Loan Officers and branch managers.
• Act as the primary data entry and reconciliation specialist within the MCT (Mortgage Capital Trading) system.
• Monitor the pipeline for "fallout" (loans that won't close) and ensure the data in our Loan Origination System matches our hedge reports.
• Learn the mechanics of interest rate risk management by assisting the SVP in daily hedging activities.
• Run daily reports to track lock expirations and extension requests.
• Perform repetitive but vital audits of loan files to ensure pricing "adjustors" (triggers that change the interest rate) are applied correctly.

Requirements

You are based in or willing to relocate to Abilene, TX, and are looking for a stable, long-term professional home. You must have a strong grasp of financial equations and be highly proficient in Excel, including VLOOKUPs and Pivot Tables.

• A Bachelor’s degree in Finance or Accounting is required.
• Internship experience in banking, accounting, or real estate is preferred.
• Familiarity with mortgage loan programs (FHA, VA, Conventional) is preferred.
• Experience with MCT or similar trading/pricing software is preferred.
