VP of Sales & Production (Producing Manager) - Orange County, CA

About this role

Our client, an established Orange County–based private credit lender, is conducting a confidential search for a VP of Sales & Production. This hands-on senior leadership role reports directly to the Founder and CEO. It is designed for a proven producer who will continue to originate while building, leading, and holding accountable a wholesale origination team.

What you'll own:

• Bring meaningful personal production and continue growing your own book of business
• Build out the wholesale origination team by recruiting, hiring, and developing originators
• Lead, coach, and hold originators accountable to production and quality goals
• Grow mortgage broker and referral partner relationships across Southern California
• Partner with Operations and Underwriting to deliver well-structured loans that protect investor capital
• Work directly with the CEO and senior leadership on sales strategy and growth
