About the role

Tips: Provide a summary of the role, what success in the position looks like, and how this role fits into the organization overall.

Responsibilities: The successful candidate will work closely with the firm's Title Administrator on all aspects of real estate title services including, without limitation, placement of new title search orders with independent searchers routinely utilized by the firm, reading title searches as they come in, compiling preliminary title reports, assisting in resolving title issues as they may arise, preparing title affidavits and transfer materials for final closing, as well as preparing final mortgage and owner/fee title policies, and spearheading mortgage/judgment payoffs, tax escrows, title premium remittances to the underwriter, etc.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
