  • Liaise with mortgage insurers and funding partners to maximise application outcomes
  • Deliver timely, accurate, and consistent credit decisions
  • Mentor and support junior analysts and lending staff on complex scenarios
  • Promote a collaborative, high-performance credit culture

About You

  • Extensive experience in residential lending, with a strong background in credit assessment and approval

  • Strong understanding of lending regulations (NCCP), credit policy frameworks, and risk management principles
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to clearly articulate and justify credit decisions
  • High attention to detail, with strong analytical and problem-solving capability
  • Ability to operate in a fast-paced, growth-focused environment
  • Relevant tertiary or industry qualifications (Finance, Commerce, Credit, Mortgage Broking or similar)

Why Join Mortgage House?

  • Exposure to securitisation, funding structures, and non-bank lending models
  • Opportunity to influence credit policy and contribute to business growth
  • Modern North Sydney office with harbour views
  • Supportive team culture with genuine development opportunities
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
