Join a high-impact team supporting the servicing of commercial real estate loans across New York City's five boroughs - including Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. As a Loan Operations Specialist, you'll play a critical role in managing the full lifecycle of complex CRE and syndicated loans, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance in all aspects of loan setup, payment processing, and reconciliation.

We offer hands-on training in CRE servicing and exposure to high-value transactions in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
**Key Responsibilities:**
+ **Loan Setup & Maintenance:** Accurately input and maintain loan data for new originations, modifications, renewals, and refinances. Set up syndicated loans and manage participation payments - whether we're the lead lender or a participant. Issue payoff letters and manage loan payoffs, including construction and participation loans.
+ **Payment Processing & Reconciliation:** Process daily mortgage payments (~$30M/month) and reconcile general ledger entries. Manage escrow payments, interest rate adjustments, principal advances, and late charges. Verify payment amounts, reconcile discrepancies, and ensure timely deposits.
+ **Reporting & Compliance:** Run daily loan accounting system reports and reconcile assigned general ledger accounts. Prepare wire transfers and manage unapplied funds and suspense accounts. Maintain audit-ready documentation and support internal/external audit requests.
+ **Client & Team Support:** Collaborate with Relationship Managers and other departments to provide requested documentation. Communicate with other institutions to resolve payment differences on syndicated loans.
**Education and Experience Required:**
+ A combined minimum of 2 years' higher education and/or work experience
**Education and Experience Preferred:**
+ **Early Career Professionals Welcome** : Recent college graduates with internship experience or exposure to accounting, finance, or real estate are encouraged to apply.

+ Eligible candidates must live within reasonable commuting distance to 250 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10177.
**Required Availability:**
