• Prepare and distribute reporting, presentations, and business communications that help stakeholders understand portfolio performance, lending activity, and other key business metrics.
• Support project work and strategic initiatives by coordinating activities, tracking progress, managing action items, and ensuring stakeholders remain informed of key updates and timelines.
