This is a remote position.
Our client is a growing and highly respected mortgage professional based in British Columbia, focused on delivering thoughtful financing solutions and an exceptional client experience across a wide range of lending scenarios.
With a strong foundation in residential lending and growing exposure to alternative, commercial, and development financing opportunities, the business continues to expand and is seeking a part-time Mortgage Underwriter & Fulfillment Specialist to become a trusted extension of the team (approximately 10 to 15 hours per week).
This is not a sales role.
Instead, this opportunity is ideal for an experienced mortgage professional who enjoys the operational side of the business - coordinating mortgage fulfillment activities, managing lender conditions, maintaining compliance standards, supporting client communication, and ensuring mortgage transactions move efficiently from application through funding. Strong mortgage underwriting knowledge is important; however, the primary focus of the role is fulfillment, file management, compliance, and lender coordination.
The successful candidate will play a key role in supporting clients, lenders, and referral partners by managing the underwriting, fulfillment, documentation, and compliance requirements necessary to deliver a seamless mortgage experience.
This is a fully remote independent contractor position. While we welcome applications from across Canada, preference will be given to candidates located in British Columbia due to the highly collaborative nature of the role. Candidates outside British Columbia must be comfortable working primarily within Pacific Time business hours.
Compensation: $35-$45 per hour, depending on experience, licensing, and overall mortgage industry expertise.
As the Mortgage Underwriter & Fulfillment Specialist, you will take ownership of mortgage files following the initial client consultation and support them through file review, underwriting support, lender submission, fulfillment, compliance, and funding.

You will also serve as a key point of contact for clients and lending partners, helping deliver a professional, responsive, and organized experience from submission through funding.
In addition to supporting active mortgage files, you will assist with CRM management, workflow coordination, document collection, and the overall organization of the business.
