Build Businesses. Strengthen Communities. Lead with Confidence.

We are seeking a seasoned SBA Lender who knows that behind every loan request is a dream with a balance sheet. This is an opportunity to take ownership of a thriving SBA platform across the dynamic markets of Coeur d’Alene, Spokane, Seattle, and Boise, partnering with business owners who are ready to scale.

You will be the architect of smart growth, structuring complex SBA 7(a) and 504 loans with precision, strategy, and confidence. If you thrive on relationship-building, understand credit inside and out, and enjoy winning new business while protecting portfolio quality, this role is built for you.


What You Will Do

  • Originate and structure SBA 7(a), 504, and related government-guaranteed loans

  • Develop strong referral networks with CPAs, attorneys, brokers, and community partners

  • Analyze financial statements, cash flow, collateral, and global debt service with disciplined credit judgment

  • Present well-structured credit packages with clear risk identification and mitigation strategies

  • Manage the full lending lifecycle from prospecting through closing

  • Ensure compliance with SBA SOP guidelines and internal credit policy

  • Partner with underwriting, closing, and servicing teams to deliver a seamless client experience


What You Bring

  • 5+ years of direct SBA lending experience

  • Deep understanding of SBA SOP guidelines and structuring requirements

  • Strong credit acumen and ability to analyze complex financials

  • Proven business development track record

  • Established referral network in the Inland Northwest, Puget Sound, or Treasure Valley markets

  • Confidence, integrity, and the ability to build long-term client trust


Why This Role Stands Out

These markets are thriving:

  • Coeur d'Alene – Rapid growth, entrepreneurial energy, and a strong small-business backbone

  • Spokane – Expanding commercial base and regional business hub

  • Seattle – Sophisticated market with diverse industries and scalable opportunity

  • Boise – One of the fastest-growing business environments in the West

You will have the autonomy to build your book, the support of experienced credit and operations teams, and the compensation structure that rewards performance.


Compensation & Benefits

  • Base Salary: $130,000 – $150,000

  • Competitive incentive plan tied to production and portfolio performance

  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage

  • 401(k) with company match

  • Paid time off and holidays

  • Professional development support


If you are a strategic SBA lender who understands that smart structure creates lasting impact, this is your opportunity to lead, grow, and make a measurable difference across vibrant Northwest markets.

Let’s build something strong.
