Two Bay Equity Home Loans executives have been promoted to new positions as John Curtin, one of Bay’s founders and owners, takes over the role of executive vice president of Corporate Initiatives, and Autumn Van Rooy will serve as the new executive vice president of Branch Finance Management and Onboarding.

In his role, Curtin will oversee implementation of companywide initiatives, corporate strategies and best practices. He will also manage a team of onsite trainers and coordinate regional sales summits.

Van Rooy led training and “onboarding” of new branches and employees during Bay Equity’s growth. In 2015, Bay opened new branches in Minnesota, Colorado, California, Illinois, Wyoming and Georgia. With his background in financial management, Van Rooy will work with a growing group of regional market managers on compliance and branch management issues.

“These gentlemen are filling key support roles to effectively implement corporate initiatives and ultimately help our sales team close more loans,” said Bay Equity CEO Brett McGovern. “Their experience and knowledge ensures we stay on target to provide our branches and loan officers with the best tools and practices to grow their business.”
