About our client
Nectar is a profitable, venture-backed fintech lender that plugs liquidity gaps for experienced commercial-real-estate owners.
They make $300 K – $5 MM investments in mezzanine debt and preferred equity so sponsors can renovate, acquire, or recapitalize stabilized, cash-flowing assets.
They aim to close deals in days, not months.
Their thesis is simple: speed + creativity + prudent credit = outsized risk-adjusted returns.
To keep that edge, they invest heavily in AI-powered underwriting, process automation—and in the originators who drive their deal engine.
Why This Role Is Different

Real Ownership – The person in this role will control a material slice of originations and help steer pricing, product tweaks, and go-to-market strategy alongside the CEO.
White-Space Opportunity – Nectar has funded 100+ deals to date; the mandate for this role is to double that in the next 12 months.
Tech-Enabled Speed – Their underwriting decisions land in 48 hours thanks to proprietary automations—giving a tangible edge with brokers and borrowers.
Clear Line to Wealth – Uncapped commissions, participation in deal economics, and equity eligibility after the first over-target year.

What You'll Do

Source & Close $30m+ / yr of qualified mezz/preferred-equity transactions.
Own the full cycle—from first outreach through diligence, term-sheet negotiation, credit committee, and funding.
Expand the referral network of mortgage bankers, broker-dealers, RIAs, and family offices; turn relationships into repeatable quarterly volume.
Partner with Marketing to test campaigns, craft collateral, and headline webinars/panels that position Nectar as the smartest money in small-balance CRE.
Pilot new tools—be on the cutting edge of the industry as Nectar rolls out AI co-pilots for prospecting, data extraction, and deal structuring.
Manage relationships—originators are the relationship owners through the full cycle, able to generate future business and help with servicing needs as they arise.

What Makes You a Fit

5+ years generating and closing CRE debt or equity (mezz/pref/bridge/agency experience all welcome).
Documented hunter: $50 MM+ sourced in the last 24 months and a CRM kept clean.
Fluency in DSCR, CLTV, NOI drivers—and how to structure around them.
Rolodex of active sponsors, mortgage bankers, and capital advisors nationwide.
Startup or high-growth DNA: iterates fast, embraces ambiguity, and defaults to action.
Willingness to travel (~25%) for site walks, closings, and the conferences where deals get done.
Interest and willingness to work with the tech team to build and utilize new technology.
