Former Firstrust Bank executive will oversee compliance, governance, and risk strategy as Click n’ Close scales its wholesale, correspondent, and retail mortgage platform

Click n’ Close has appointed Amy Azorandia as chief compliance officer, bringing a veteran mortgage compliance executive into the company as it continues expanding its national lending platform across wholesale, correspondent, and retail channels.

In the role, Azorandia will oversee the lender’s compliance strategy, governance framework, and risk management infrastructure, with a focus on strengthening enterprise-wide compliance systems and regulatory oversight.

“I’m pleased to welcome Amy to Click n’ Close,” Ian Kimball, president of Click n’ Close, said in a statement. “Her deep expertise in building scalable compliance frameworks and integrating risk management into operational strategy will be instrumental as we continue to grow the business while maintaining the highest standards of quality and accountability.”

Azorandia brings more than 20 years of mortgage banking experience to the role. Most recently, she served as senior vice president of mortgage compliance and systems at Firstrust Bank, where she led regulatory strategy, compliance governance, and operational transformation initiatives. Prior to that, she held executive leadership positions at GMH Mortgage Services, where she helped build compliance programs supporting a multi-state platform that exceeded $1 billion in annual originations.

According to the company, Azorandia has led the development of risk-based compliance management systems, overseen regulatory examinations, and implemented operational and digital enhancements aimed at improving loan quality and efficiency. She is also a Certified Mortgage Banker and has held leadership roles within the Mortgage Bankers Association and The Mortgage Collaborative.

“Click n’ Close has built a strong foundation centered on innovation, execution, and expanding access to homeownership,” Azorandia said. “I look forward to strengthening the company’s compliance infrastructure in a way that supports sustainable growth, enhances operational performance, and reinforces confidence across our partners and borrowers.”

Based in Addison, Texas, Click n’ Close operates across all 50 states and Washington, D.C. The lender is known for its down payment assistance offerings, One-Time Close construction lending platform, and its 1st Tribal Lending division, which focuses on Section 184 lending for Native American borrowers.
