• Pre-screen loan opportunities, interview applicants, gather financial packages, and assess SBA program fit for common requests (for example, 7(a) and 504).
• Collaborate with business banking underwriting to structure terms that provide appropriate returns and mitigate risk by sizing facilities to verified cash flow and working capital cycles, aligning term and amortization to loan purpose and collateral useful life, setting collateral advance rates and loan‑to‑value within policy, confirming guarantor support and global Debt Service Coverage Ratio, selecting SBA products and guaranty levels when eligibility strengthens repayment and reduces risk, and defining pre‑funding conditions and covenants with clear documentation.
• Respond to inquiries within established service levels, conduct regular check-ins at a documented cadence based on relationship size and complexity, collect required financial information ahead of renewals, reviews, or material change, and document all interactions in CRM to surface opportunities.
