•Steady professionals looking to enter or re-enter the industry, perhaps between opportunities

What You'll Do
•Analyze MCA applications, including revenue trends, credit reports, and business viability
•Conduct merchant reviews to gauge funding fit and risk levels
•Collaborate with a team of 10+ underwriters on daily/weekly deal flows
•Apply the firm's credit box with provided training to structure sustainable advances
•Support portfolio monitoring and risk mitigation in a hybrid office/remote environment

Skills and Competencies Required:
•Analytical mindset for evaluating financial health and default potential
•Comfort with fast decisions in a volume-driven setting
•Integrity and attention to detail in a regulated industry
•Onsite availability in Lakehurst, NJ (with some flexibility for remote after onboarding)

Desired:
•Familiarity with MCA tools like bank statement analysis software
•Ability to thrive in a collaborative team of in-office and remote underwriters

What's In It for You
•Base salary $50K–$80K, based on experience (W2 or 1099 options)
•Annual raises for performance and tenure
•Training and mentorship to build MCA expertise quickly
•Join a stable team in a firm with nationwide reach, offering job security for those transitioning
•Medical benefits and relocation support available for NJ-based candidates
