Bio
Robert H. Johnson Jr.
Brandon is an inspirational and motivational leader and colleague. I had the privilege of working with him on a regular basis during our time at Capital One Home Loans. What I appreciated most about Brandon was his ability to manage multiple projects and lead his team with confidence, humility and empathy. He builds strong and trusting relationships by relating to people and understanding their individual goals and needs. Brandon also has an infectiously positive and optimistic attitude that makes work fun and engaging. He would be an asset to any organization.

Process Manager/Sales Support Coach
-
Mar 2016 - Jan 2018
When the sales-support position opened up, I was the person the company reached out to for the opportunity. Shortly after starting in sales support, my efforts helped the team earn the ONE Award for Process Excellence. It is a great feeling to know the hard work and brand I was able to build was contributing to success of my team. I also:✔️Promoted the move to a new mortgage prequalification system that lowered costs by 73% without significant change to the defect rate.✔️Implemented process changes to our Promotional Offers Program that improved the service- level agreement from 4 days to 4 hours, and earned increased trust from internal sales partners✔️Managed the Home Loans Department transition to a new mortgage-origination platform that decreased application times by 50%, and led to a 115% increase in customer experience scores.The new originations platform for our sales staff took about 2 years, and the combined work of several different departments, but it was a huge success once it was rolled out. We were able to increase the efficiency of taking a mortgage application 50%, which translated to a better internal and external customer experience. Show less
