Who we are

Mortgage brokers in Tennessee send us loans to underwrite, close and fund. The lending team focuses on SBA loans, working capital lines and commercial real estate. We started in 1949 and have grown to about 90 people. Quarter-end is busy, and everyone helps with client review prep.

The internship

Work with the Growth Team on partnerships and B2B sales. Good fit for BBA, MBA and commerce students who want real sales exposure. Our team is spread across 14 countries. Headquarters is in Memphis. You will intern remotely with our team in Memphis. We have hosted remote interns from several countries before. Core hours overlap with US Central time, 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM CT. We ship you a laptop and accessories before your first day.
