Waterstone Mortgage welcomes new VP of risk and compliance

Waterstone Mortgage has hired Scott Woodbury as the company’s vice president of risk and compliance.

As vice president, Woodbury will be responsible for Waterstone’s compliance management system, vendor management program, and its internal audit function.
