  • Structure, negotiate, and execute secured credit facilities, managing the full transaction lifecycle from origination through closing
  • Represent Dwight as a leader in the ABL ecosystem by maintaining a visible presence at industry events, conferences, and within relevant networks

About You

  • Active presence in the market, with enthusiasm for representing Dwight as a thought leader and dealmaker
