Job Description
Bankrate is seeking a part-time, Missouri-licensed Mortgage Loan Originator to join our team in a specialized, regulatory-focused capacity. This is an ideal role for an experienced MLO professional who maintains an active Missouri MLO license and is looking for a stable, low-volume opportunity to support the company’s expansion into the Missouri market.
Reporting directly to the Compliance Director, you will serve as a licensed MLO for Bankrate’s Missouri branch operations. The primary focus of this role is ensuring state-specific licensing continuity and maintaining a professional presence for licensed mortgage activities.
- Narrow Responsibilities: This role is designed for someone seeking a “low-bandwidth” professional commitment. There is no customer interaction, no loan application processing, and no sales production required.
- Hybrid Flexibility: Aside from occasional, unscheduled branch visits, the role is remote-friendly.
- Compensation: This is a part-time position with an annual salary of $18,000 - $24,000. This role is not eligible for commissions [or other benefits].

What You’ll Do:
- License Maintenance: Maintain an active and approved Missouri Mortgage Loan Originator (MLO) license in good standing.
- Branch Manager Designation: Serve as the designated manager for the branch office as required by the Missouri Division of Finance.
- Regulatory Liaison: Serve as a contact for the Missouri Division of Finance during state examinations or other regulatory engagements.
- Branch Oversight: Occasionally be present at the Missouri branch office for administrative tasks or on-site state examinations (scheduled and unscheduled).
- Operational Compliance: Ensure the Missouri branch operations remain in alignment with state-specific regulatory requirements.
- Professional Representation: Engage with state regulators and examiners with confidence and professionalism
What We’re Looking For:
- Active License: Must hold an active, approved Missouri Mortgage Loan Originator license.
- Exclusivity: Must be able to be sponsored exclusively by Bankrate in the state of Missouri (no dual sponsorship with other mortgage companies).
- Location: Must reside within a one-hour, one-way commute of the branch office. We are in the process of determining the go-forward office location, which will be in either the Kansas City or St. Louis metro area.
- Availability: Must be available to report to the branch office for occasional regulatory or administrative events as needed.
- Experience: Previous experience interacting with state examiners or a background in mortgage compliance is a plus.
Compensation:
