Matt MacGillivray Named Southeast regional manager for Guild Mortgage

Feb 23, 2015

Guild Mortgage Company has promoted Matt MacGillivray to the role of Southeast regional manager. Prior to his promotion, he managed Guild branches in South Carolina. In his new position, MacGillivray will be responsible for the management and oversight of Guild's retail mortgage production activities in South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and Florida.

MacGillivray spent more than 22 years as a high producing loan officer at Bank of America prior to joining Guild in June 2012. A veteran in the mortgage banking industry, MacGillivray brings 30-plus years of experience to his new position as regional branch manager. During his first year with Guild, he expanded the number of branches he managed from three to eight within the first 12 months. MacGillivray became the number one lender in Columbia in terms of purchase transactions on resales, in dollar volume and number of transactions.

“Matt will now be expanding that same growth ethic throughout the region, which is one of the most promising in the U.S. as the state economies continue getting stronger,” said Mary Ann McGarry, president and CEO of Guild Mortgage.

“Our people are dedicated to raising the bar on customer service in mortgage lending,” said McGillivray. “Guild's products, service, leadership and employees are aligned to help people achieve their dream of homeownership and we look forward to expanding throughout the South and Southeast.”
