United Texas Credit Union
Mortgage Operations Specialist (Processor/Underwriter)
Fort Worth, TX - Full Time
Overview:
We’re seeking an experienced mortgage professional to assume a hands-on operations role, responsible for processing, underwriting, and closing mortgage loans. This position replaces a leadership-level departure, so we’re seeking someone confident, efficient, and capable of managing files from approval through closing — all while maintaining compliance and delivering an excellent member experience. You’ll work with a mix of portfolio loans, brokered loans through established wholesale partners, and construction lending.
Key Responsibilities:
We’re a member-focused credit union with a proactive lending culture and a growing mortgage presence. We don’t sell into the secondary market — instead, we pride ourselves on our flexibility, fast decisions, and ability to say “yes” when others say “no.” If you’re looking for a stable environment where you can make a real impact and use the full range of your mortgage operations experience, this is the role for you.
