About This Role

The Servicing Accounting VP supports the Residential Credit and MSR business units by reconciling, reviewing, and overseeing subservicers’ financially related activities. Servicing Accounting team resides within the Finance Team at Annaly.  Responsibilities span Test of Expected Cash, cash flow reconciliations, advance, repurchases and servicing transfer reconciliations and exceptions, data integrity, exception management, and oversight of investor reporting.

Mortgage Products are a high‑growth area for Annaly, requiring strong execution, scalable controls, and effective cross‑functional collaboration.
