HEAD OF COMPLIANCE
Mortgage Banking | Remote | Full-Time
Confidential Search Presented by Ciprani Consulting
Salary Range: $115,000 – $145,000 | Performance-Based Bonus | Paid Time Off
THE OPPORTUNITY
Are you a compliance leader who can hold two things at once — the discipline to get into the weeds of a loan file when it matters, and the strategic mindset to build the systems, policies, and controls that protect a scaling mortgage business with authority?
We are conducting a confidential search for a Head of Compliance at a privately held mortgage banking company with nearly two decades in business, $1.6 billion in annual funding, and a trajectory toward $2 billion this year. The company operates both retail and wholesale lending channels and has experienced significant growth over the past three years under current leadership. This is an established, financially active operation — not a startup.
The Head of Compliance reports directly to the CEO and holds accountability to the Board of Directors for key compliance findings. Compliance is taken seriously at the executive level here, and this role reflects that.
This is not a pure strategy role. And it is not a pure execution role. It is both, and that is exactly what makes it the right fit for the right person.
What Makes This Role Different
The company has a long-standing relationship with MQMR, a leading mortgage compliance advisory firm, providing access to retained legal counsel, regulatory intelligence, policy and procedure templates, and in-depth guidance on regulatory interpretation. You will not be expected to be the company’s sole source of regulatory knowledge. You will be expected to leverage that relationship effectively, translate it into operational reality inside the company, and build the infrastructure that turns compliance guidance into an enforceable, scalable process.
Licensing also reports through this role, adding meaningful organizational scope and a direct line of accountability for one of the most operationally critical functions in the business.
