The Opportunity
The Long-Term Escrow Coordinator is a critical operational hub, providing specialized support across our escrow accounting, legal, and closing departments. In this detail-intensive role, you will take ownership of long-term escrow files - reviewing complex agreements, reconciling bank statements, processing builder draws, and ensuring strict compliance at every step.
You will act as a central liaison for internal teams, clients, and banking partners to manage the full lifecycle of these accounts, from initial deposit to final closeout. If you possess a highly analytical mindset, particularly with a background in reviewing contracts or paralegal work, and excel at managing intricate financial processes while delivering exceptional customer service, this role offers a highly rewarding opportunity to safeguard and streamline our operations.

What You’ll Do
In this role, you will support the strategic direction of the organization by managing long-term escrow accounts and facilitating accurate disbursements. Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:
- Contract Review & Compliance: Review long-term escrow agreements, contracts, and related documents to verify completeness, ensure compliance, and determine accurate disbursement instructions. You will collaborate regularly with the legal, closing, and accounting departments regarding escrow compliance.
- Financial Operations & Disbursements: Process builder draws, review deposits into LTE files, and transfer funds from long-term escrows to closing files. You will execute disbursements via check or wire and perform verbal verifications for all wiring instructions.
- Banking & Reconciliation: Reconcile bank statements by verifying balances and inputting monthly interest to ensure our files are perfectly in balance with the bank. You will prepare requests to withdraw or close out funds from investment banks and credit closing files accordingly.
- Account Administration: Monitor and process monthly scheduled deposits and disbursements. You will also prepare letter of credit reductions, cancellation letters, FedEx mailings, and process recurring monthly and account activity reports for clients.
- Communication & Support: Manage communications from individual and shared disbursing email accounts, maintaining daily contact with clients and closers to follow up on pending documents or approvals. You will also model the Land Title culture, provide department backup (including phone coverage and file updates), and act as a mentor to the team.
What You Bring

- Analytical Contract Review: A strong aptitude for reading, interpreting, and reviewing complex contracts and legal documents to determine exact requirements and next steps.
- Process Management: A talent for figuring out the best workflows to get things done. You know how to organize activities, simplify complex processes, and maximize efficiency without sacrificing accuracy.
- Priority Setting: The ability to quickly zero in on critical tasks, put trivial matters aside, eliminate roadblocks, and create focus for yourself and your team in a fast-paced environment.
- Customer Focus: A dedication to meeting the expectations of internal and external customers. You actively use firsthand information to improve services, establish effective relationships, and gain the trust and respect of your clients and peers.
