Hybrid$19.89–$31.97/hrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where there is real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, navigation, legal, etc. Also remove application instructions. We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's parse the job description. Key parts: - Hiring Range: $19.89 - $31.97. The posted salary range reflects Eastern’s expected hiring range. Actual pay may vary based on experience, skills, and market factors; additional compensation may apply. Eastern offers a robust benefits and retirement package. Please see the description of benefits included with this job posting for additional information. Thus we have Pay (salary range) and Benefits (robust benefits and retirement package). Also mention "Please see the description of benefits included with this job posting for additional information." We can keep that as part of Benefits. - The Loan Operations Specialist is responsible for resolving credit bureau corrections and disputes, triaging customer complaints, performing quality control reviews of new loan data input and post-boarding file maintenance on the core loan system. The role exists to ensure consumer credit information is reported correctly under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), loan records are accurate, and departmental controls and reconcilements are evidenced and audit-ready. That's about the role (summary). Could be "About the role" section. - Major Responsibilities: then bullet list (multiple paragraphs). We'll need to extract each bullet as
  • under
      . Let's list responsibilities: 1. New Loan Data Input Quality Control: Perform detailed quality control reviews of newly booked loans on the core loan system (FIS IBS Insight), validating loan setup, terms, rate plans, payment structure, collateral and customer data against the executed loan documents and approval. Document exceptions, cross-check errors, and route corrections to the originating team for resolution within established timelines. 2. File Maintenance Quality Control: Review post-boarding maintenance activity — modifications, renewals and extensions, interest rate changes, adjustable rate plan updates, tax and insurance escrow administration, and non-financial data changes — to confirm accuracy, appropriate authorization, and supporting documentation. Track error trends and report results to the Loan Operations Manager. 3. Credit Bureau Corrections and Disputes: Receive, investigate and process credit bureau disputes and correction requests submitted through credit reporting agencies (eOSCAR), consumers, attorneys and regulatory agencies. Review loan records, payment histories and servicing notes to determine dispute validity, submit accurate responses and account-level corrections within FCRA regulatory timeframes, and maintain complete records of each investigation and outcome. 4. Reconcilement Documentation: Prepare and document reconcilements associated with Loan Operations, including general ledger variance research, transaction variance (over/short) monitoring, and suspense and clearing account activity. Evidence preparer and review steps, escalate unresolved variances, and maintain reconcilement documentation to audit standards. 5. Customer Complaint Triage: Assist with intake, triage and research of customer complaints affecting loan accounts. Gather account history and documentation, determine root cause, route to the appropriate business line or compliance partner, and document research, resolution and response within required complaint tracking timelines under the direction of the Loan Operations Manager. 6. Controls, Procedures and Audit Support: Support compliance and control testing, draft and edit standard operating procedures (SOPs), respond to internal audit and examination requests, and assist with department training and cross-training on quality control and credit reporting processes. Works within established policies, procedures and regulatory timeframes; escalates exceptions and unresolved variances to the Loan Operations Manager. Then after that there is a paragraph: "Determines the validity of credit bureau disputes and the appropriate correction, update or deletion to consumer credit reporting records. Researches and resolves complex customer and account issues. Communicates trends, root causes and recommendations to management to improve accuracy, efficiency and productivity within the department. Determines whether loan input and maintenance exceptions require correction, re-work or escalation, and identifies control gaps in the underlying process. Balances changing priorities and competing production deadlines while performing a variety of complex tasks with minimal supervision." These seem like additional responsibilities or skills; could be part of Responsibilities or maybe Skills. We'll treat them as part of Responsibilities (maybe as additional bullet points). But they are not bullet list; they are sentences. Could be included as
    • items as well. Better to keep them as part of Responsibilities as separate bullet points. Now Education And Experience: - BS/BA College Degree - 3-5 years of experience in a loan servicing, loan operations or loan documentation role required. - Prior quality control, reconcilement or credit reporting experience preferred. - Working knowledge of general Banking regulations pertaining to Loans (reg Z, fair lending, Fair Credit, etc.) - Working knowledge of loan booking, maintenance and servicing on a core loan system; FIS IBS Insight experience - Strong understanding of FCRA requirements and credit reporting standards; familiarity with eOSCAR dispute processing - Ability to read and interpret loan documentation, account agreements, disclosures and account histories. - Strong quality control, reconcilement and analytical skills, with high attention to detail. - Ability to prepare clear written documentation, procedures and reporting for management and audit. - Ability to handle sensitive and confidential consumer information. - Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams. - Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications, particularly Excel, Outlook and Word. These are qualifications/requirements/skills. We can split into sections: Requirements (education/experience), Qualifications (maybe same), Skills (technical). But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine Education and Experience into a "Requirements" section, and Skills into a "Skills" section. Qualifications maybe redundant. We have "Education And Experience" heading; we can treat that as Requirements. Then we have a list of abilities etc. Those could be Skills. We also have Working Conditions: Must be able to work with minimal supervision and minimal errors. Work must be completed within established regulatory and departmental timelines without exception. Communicates directly with management, peers and business lines. Ability to work on-site 2-3 days per week. That could be a "Schedule" section? Actually schedule is about on-site days. Could be "Schedule" (2-3 days per week on-site). Also mention minimal supervision etc. Could be "Working Conditions" but we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can put schedule info under Schedule (on-site 2-3 days per week). The other working conditions (minimal supervision, timelines) could be part of Responsibilities or maybe Skills? Might fit under Responsibilities as they describe how work is performed. But we already have responsibilities list; we could add a bullet about working with minimal supervision etc. However the instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we incorporate working conditions into Responsibilities or Skills. But we have a Schedule heading allowed; we can put the on-site schedule there. Now Benefits: "Eastern offers a robust benefits and retirement package. Please see the description of benefits included with this job posting for additional information." Also earlier: "We are proud to offer comprehensive compensation plans and a benefits program called Total Rewards that includes medical, dental, vision, life and disability insurance, retirement, vacation and tuition reimbursement." That's in About Us section. So we have benefits details. Thus Benefits section can include that description. Pay: we have hiring range $19.89 - $31.97. Now About Us: At Eastern Bank, we pride ourselves... inclusive company... values... Total Rewards... equal opportunity employer... etc. This is boilerplate but includes some substantive info about culture, benefits program. However we need to remove EEO/equal-opportunity/legal boilerplate. The About Us includes some fluff but also mentions Total Rewards benefits. Since we already have Benefits section, we could keep a brief About the role (summary) and maybe not include About Us as it's mostly boilerplate. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The About Us includes EEO statement; we should remove that. Also the inclusive company statements may be considered boilerplate? Might be okay to keep a short summary about company culture if it's substantive. But we need to preserve ALL substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. The About Us includes: "At Eastern Bank, we pride ourselves on supporting our employees by offering tremendous opportunity for individual growth. As an inclusive company, we work to ensure that our valued employees are treated fairly, recognized for their individuality, and encouraged to reach their fullest potential. These values have earned us a reputation as a great place to work and provide a strong reason why you should consider a career with us. We are proud to offer comprehensive compensation plans and a benefits program called Total Rewards that includes medical, dental, vision, life and disability insurance, retirement, vacation and tuition reimbursement." This is substantive about culture and benefits. However we already have Benefits section; we could keep a short "About the role" summary (the earlier paragraph). The About Us could be considered boilerplate but includes some info about compensation plans and benefits program. Since we already have Benefits, we could omit About Us to avoid duplication. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can skip About Us. Thus sections: - About the role (summary paragraph) - Responsibilities (ul) - Requirements (education/experience) (ul) - Skills (abilities) (ul) - Benefits (p) - Pay (p) - Schedule (p) (on-site 2-3 days per week) We need to ensure we don't create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have real content. Now format: Use

      for each section heading. Then content:

      for prose,

      • for lists. We must not include or . Just fragment. Let's craft. About the role: combine the initial summary sentences: "The Loan Operations Specialist is responsible for resolving credit bureau corrections and disputes, triaging customer complaints, performing quality control reviews of new loan data input and post-boarding file maintenance on the core loan system. The role exists to ensure consumer credit information is reported correctly under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), loan records are accurate, and departmental controls and reconcilements are evidenced and audit-ready." That's one paragraph. Responsibilities: list each bullet as
      • . Include the extra sentences after the bullet list as separate
      • items. Let's list: - Perform detailed quality control reviews of newly booked loans on the core loan system (FIS IBS Insight), validating loan setup, terms, rate plans, payment structure, collateral and customer data against the executed loan documents and approval; document exceptions, cross-check errors, and route corrections to the originating team for resolution within established timelines. - Review post-boarding maintenance activity — modifications, renewals and extensions, interest rate changes, adjustable rate plan updates, tax and insurance escrow administration, and non-financial data changes — to confirm accuracy, appropriate authorization, and supporting documentation; track error trends and report results to the Loan Operations Manager. - Receive, investigate and process credit bureau disputes and correction requests submitted through credit reporting agencies (eOSCAR), consumers, attorneys and regulatory agencies; review loan records, payment histories and servicing notes to determine dispute validity, submit accurate responses and account-level corrections within FCRA regulatory timeframes, and maintain complete records of each investigation and outcome. - Prepare and document reconcilements associated with Loan Operations, including general ledger variance research, transaction variance (over/short) monitoring, and suspense and clearing account activity; evidence preparer and review steps, escalate unresolved variances, and maintain reconcilement documentation to audit standards. - Assist with intake, triage and research of customer complaints affecting loan accounts; gather account history and documentation, determine root cause, route to the appropriate business line or compliance partner, and document research, resolution and response within required complaint tracking timelines under the direction of the Loan Operations Manager. - Support compliance and control testing, draft and edit standard operating procedures (SOPs), respond to
