Morgan Advisors, Personal Advisors and Self-Directed - our digital investing platform. The combined business has ~$600 billion in Assets Under Management and ~5,000 advisors located across 3,500 branches and 20 offices.
As a Custom Lending Specialist within JP Morgan Chase Wealth Management, you will serve as a trusted, solutions-oriented lending expert and the primary point of contact for Financial Advisors, ultra-high net-worth clients, and Market Leadership. In this high-impact, fast-paced role, you will design and deliver custom lending solutions across commercial real estate (CRE), unsecured lending, restricted stock and concentrated equity-related financing, and other tailored specialty structures-helping some of the firm's largest advisors and clients execute complex liquidity and financing objectives with excellence. You will implement and steward credit strategies that reflect clients' unique circumstances, balance sheet complexity, and broader wealth-management goals. Leveraging a platform that integrates wealth management, valuation, and transaction expertise, you will develop specialty financing solutions for clients seeking to extract liquidity from illiquid or complex assets, while maintaining a strong focus on disciplined risk management, best-in-class execution, and an exceptional client experience. In addition to delivering seamless execution of new lending requests, you will originate and expand business, deepen existing relationships, and champion the full suite of JP Morgan Wealth Management lending capabilities. You will also elevate advisor confidence and effectiveness through consultative guidance-helping teams proactively identify opportunities where thoughtful credit structuring can unlock growth, enhance client outcomes, and strengthen long-term relationships. Collaboration sits at the center of this position. You will partner closely with internal stakeholders to navigate structuring, underwriting, execution, and ongoing servicing needs; resolve production, quality, and escalated client service or risk-related issues; and continuously improve operating rigor. Given the pace of innovation in this business, you will be at the forefront of shaping specialty lending within Wealth Management-driving sustained growth, raising the bar on service, and setting new standards for performance. This is a distinctive opportunity for a strategic, client-focused professional to deliver visible, lasting impact-on the business, on advisors' ability to serve their clients, and on the financial lives of some of the most sophisticated households we support.
