Our Company
Fairway America is a successful locally owned and privately funded asset based
lender. Through a simplified and streamlined process, Fairway America provides
financing solutions for people who are unable or unwilling to get financed by more
traditional lending sources. Every day, Fairway America helps borrowers solve
difficult problems, meet pressing deadlines, or take advantage of excellent
opportunities. While assisting these borrowers, we also enable our investors to earn
above average returns they are unable to get elsewhere. As many brokers and
lenders have gone out of business or are struggling mightily, our conservative
lending approach has enabled us to weather this financial storm and positioned us to
take advantage of unprecedented market opportunities while helping people who are
otherwise unable to secure financing.
The Position
The role of CFO has three primary components consisting of: 1) personally leading
the treasury functions of the company including our efforts in procuring the

business (30%); and, 3) managing and leading our accounting function (20%). This
position requires prior experience in the financial services industry with specific
experience in the financing of asset backed securities through debt facilities,
securitizations, whole loan syndications and other means.
Responsibilities

Work closely with the management team to coordinate loan fundings with investment dollars, warehouse lines, and sales of loans into the secondary market.
Take primary responsibility for success and direction of the capital raising and loan funding side of the company's business.

Monitor and manage cash flows for the company and related investment entities.
Ensure that the company is prepared for its various audits and outside reviews.
Qualifications

10+ years relevant experience in the finance organization of respected financial services company preferably engaged in asset-based lending.
