I was a Team Captain on the Collateral Management team in the Capital Markets group. I worked on the team from February 2013 to July 2016. The team's main responsibility is to manage the collateral (i.e the original Note) for the entire company.The Collateral Management team was created in February 2013, which is when I was also promoted to the team in the role of Collateral Coordinator. I worked with Senior Leadership, Business Analysts, and Engineers to collaborate and assist in the construction and development of the team. During my time on the team I was promoted from Collateral Coordinator to Senior Collateral Coordinator and then Team Captain.I oversaw the day-to-day operations of the team. I also distributed the workload amongst direct reports, provided guidance, ensured motivation and performance levels were maintained, worked with internal and external teams to ensure that deadlines were met, facilitated and participated in conference calls and white board sessions in order to solve problems and discuss goals, completed data analysis, identified process problems in order to implement new and improved policies and processes, reconciled monthly invoices, created training manuals, and sent reporting to senior leadership.Prior to the team being created in 2013 there was no direction for how the team should operate. Therefore, one of my greatest accomplishments was creating a process and set of guidelines for the team. This was accomplished by automating daily tasks, building relationships, and gaining knowledge necessary to make improvements.I left Quicken Loans in July 2016 to attend postgraduate school at the University of Manchester.
