Panorama Mortgage Group, a multi-brand national mortgage company based in Nevada, has hired Ryan Rathert as chief financial officer, effective immediately.
As a financial executive with more than 15 years in the mortgage leadership role, Rathert brings insight to problem solving and prides himself on simplifying challenges, the company said. He spent the last eight years with Stearns Lending, the past four as chief operations officer and chief financial officer (CFO) of the Wholesale Mortgage Channel. His previous roles included production CFO, head of private label operations, and several senior finance and business support roles for Stearns Lending, Wells Fargo and Mr. Cooper.
“Anything is possible when you have the right people behind you, and I am beyond thrilled to announce that Ryan is one of those people,” PMG President and Chief Operations Officer Sarah Gonzalez said. “His expertise in production finance with a pure joy of serving others is a fantastic fit for Panorama Mortgage Group. Ryan has a proven record of developing top grade teams by investing in the next generation of mortgage professionals and I look forward to his contributions as our new Chief Financial Officer. I could think of no one better to work with our brand presidents, while providing mentorship to the core team.”
As an executive leader, Rathert said he is passionate about diversity and inclusion inside the firm and minority homeownership for the borrowers he serves. An active participant in industry advocacy, Rathert holds an accredited mortgage professional designation with the Mortgage Bankers Association and routinely participates in industry events and Stratmor Roundtables.
“I am impressed by PMG’s financial savviness, its commitment to solid strategic growth, its devotion to its employees and the borrowers it serves, Rathert said. “I’m excited to join the company and help drive its future success. I especially admire Panorama’s focus on the underserved market. I think that it is a fast-growing opportunity, and I love seeing more support and investment going into those communities.”
