Glenda Klein
Chief financial officer
FIRST RATE FINANCIAL
Glenda Klein has been in the mortgage business for more than 38 years, having experience in both public and privately held mortgage companies both in the United States and Australia in addition to a wide range of other financial arenas. After all that time, she’s still passionate about the industry. She has created management, strategic planning and systems integration during her long career. She joined First Rate Financial Group in order to bring to the team her knowledge and experience in building profitable mortgage banking.
Through a very difficult 2010 for most mortgage companies, First Rate Financial Group was able to grow and weather the mortgage hurricane. Glenda believes in innovative and hands-on solutions, with focus on building solid teams.
Glenda works an average of 12 hours a day, and constantly looks for opportunities to improve First Rate Financial’s culture and expand its business. Glenda wears many hats at First Rate Financial, running the company’s banking lines, overseeing human resources, compliance, payroll and accounting, even IT – and still finds the time to pick up breakfast for its 52 employees a couple of times a month. Her motto is that working together as a team creates a company that is like a family.
