Full Job Description

📋 Description

  • • We are seeking a dedicated and meticulous Mortgage Broker Assistant to join our remote team, supporting clients through the complex process of residential refinance, particularly those with challenging credit histories or intricate financial situations.
  • • This role is pivotal in guiding clients through each stage of their loan application, ensuring a supportive and clear experience from initial document collection to final settlement.
  • • You will manage a portfolio of approximately 5-10 active applications concurrently, maintaining a balance between efficient internal processing and a deliberately slow-paced, empathetic client interaction.
  • • A core responsibility involves specialized loan processing, focusing on residential refinance applications for individuals who may have "bad credit" or non-traditional financial backgrounds.
  • • You will implement a phased document collection strategy, starting with essential documents like payslips, home loan statements, and identification, before requesting full compliance documentation. This approach is designed to prevent clients from feeling overwhelmed.
  • • A significant part of the role requires deep financial analysis, involving a "fine-tooth comb" review of bank statements to identify potential red flags, undisclosed debts, or less obvious financial commitments such as payday lenders that might not appear on standard credit reports.
  • • You will be responsible for ordering and thoroughly analyzing credit reports, specifically from Equifax, to pinpoint any defaults, instances of late payments, or existing financial liabilities that could impact the refinance application.
  • • Performing rough servicing and capacity calculations is crucial to ensure that the proposed refinance solution will result in a substantial reduction in the client's monthly repayments, with a target reduction of $500 to $5,000.
  • • You will manage the preparation and distribution of compliance packs, which include essential privacy and credit consents, ensuring they are sent for digital signature in a timely manner.
  • • Diligent application monitoring is key; you will track the status of each file using our internal CRM and spreadsheets, ensuring consistent follow-up with clients every two days regarding any outstanding documents or information.
  • • Acting as a primary liaison with lenders, you will monitor applications through various lender portals, proactively managing "Requests for Information" (RFIs) to facilitate the progression towards formal approval and eventual settlement.
  • • A proactive approach to process optimization is encouraged; you will be expected to update internal knowledge sheets and trackers to remain current with evolving lender policies and product offerings.
  • • Beyond core loan processing, you will provide essential administrative support, which may include assisting with minor marketing tasks such as updating social media graphics or templates using basic design tools like Canva.
  • • The workflow emphasizes collaboration, with frequent internal video check-ins scheduled to discuss complex or challenging files that require collective problem-solving beyond email or chat.
  • • While the internal processes are designed for efficiency, the client-facing aspect of this role is intentionally "slow-paced" to foster a sense of support and reduce pressure on clients during what can be a stressful financial process.
  • • This role offers a unique opportunity to make a tangible difference in the financial lives of clients by helping them secure more manageable and beneficial home loan arrangements.
  • • You will develop a deep understanding of the Australian mortgage market, with a specific focus on niche lending scenarios.
  • • The remote work setup allows for flexibility while demanding strong self-discipline and time management skills.
  • • Contributing to the continuous improvement of our loan processing procedures and client support mechanisms will be a key aspect of your success.
