You'll bring lenders and lender relationships onto the Apex platform, working with our team on lender onboarding and deal matching. Apex (https://useapex.com) matches financing opportunities with private credit lenders. This role is focused on the lender side of that marketplace, and suits someone who knows how lenders decide what to fund, whether you work at a lender or as a broker or advisor who places deals with many of them.
What you'll do:
- Introduce lenders from your network to Apex and develop new lender relationships.
- Understand each lender's lending criteria, deal size and appetite, and help our team capture it accurately on the platform.
- Work with Apex's team on lender onboarding and follow-up as deals are matched.
- Manage your lender pipeline and maintain the lender relationship through closed transactions.

- A broad network of lenders and capital providers, such as private credit funds, debt funds, banks, specialty finance companies and bridge lenders, with a realistic plan for bringing them to Apex. Brokers who regularly place deals with many lenders are a strong fit.
- An understanding of lender criteria and how to assess whether a financing request fits a lender's appetite.
- The ability to work independently and enough availability to manage your lender pipeline and follow-up.
