Mortgage & Credit Operations Support

  • Document key client details and prepare comprehensive file summaries for the Para Broker team.
  • Leverage basic credit knowledge to understand client lending scenarios, identify hurdles, and manage file handovers.
  • Oversee lending workflow coordination, including document collection, Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements, and CRM updates.
  • Ensure files move smoothly through the pipeline from initial inquiry through to settlement support.

Team & Business Operations

  • Monitor internal team workflows, track key action items, and ensure project deadlines are met.
  • Maintain team accountability and foster clear cross-departmental communication.
  • Implement and refine operational systems to support scalable multi-business operations.

Content & Marketing Coordination

  • Manage social media presence (e.g., Facebook) across both financial services and hospitality operations.
  • Utilize modern AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude) to draft, refine, and repurpose strategic content based on founder prompts.
  • Schedule, publish, and track marketing content to ensure brand consistency across digital platforms.

Requirements

QUALIFICATIONS (Must-Have):

  • Experience: Minimum 3 years of experience as an Executive Assistant, Operations Coordinator, Chief of Staff, or similar senior support role supporting a fast-paced founder or executive.
  • Domain Knowledge: Strong working knowledge of the Australian mortgage broking, lending, banking, or credit industry processes and terminology.
  • Technical Skills: Proficiency in Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, CRM platforms, and generative AI productivity tools (ChatGPT, Claude).
  • Communication: Exceptional written and verbal English communication skills, with proven ability to craft clear summaries and public-facing content.
  • Independence: Strong problem-solving ability with a proven track record of managing competing priorities and working autonomously with incomplete information.



Preferred Skills (Nice to Have)

  • Direct experience supporting multi-business operations or dual sectors (e.g., Finance and Hospitality).

  • Familiarity with design and social media management platforms such as Canva and Facebook Business Suite
