Embrace Home Loans has announced that industry veteran Patrick Mullen has joined the company as its new Director of Recruiting, where he will spearhead the growth and expansion of Embrace Home Loans’ sales organization by developing a robust recruiting strategy.
 
“My vision is for Embrace Home Loans to be the employer of choice for mortgage origination talent in the markets in which we serve. Embrace Home Loans is uniquely positioned for growth and I am thrilled to play a role in helping drive our future growth,” said Mullen. “I joined the team at Embrace to continue to build upon the great foundation the company has built over the past three decades. In my 15 years recruiting within the mortgage industry, I’ve learned mortgage originators desire a stable and secure company, a supportive culture and strong executive leadership; Embrace Home Loans is that company.”
 
Bringing more than 20 years of experience in executive search and corporate talent acquisition with a strong background working with both national and local mortgage lenders, Mullen held previous leadership positions at Service First Mortgage, PNC Mortgage and Wells Fargo Home Mortgage. Additionally, he has held roles as a strategic adviser developing recruiting strategies as well as managing performance-enhancement projects.

With his addition, I am confident we will thrive.”
