Our client, a private equity backed finance lender, supports individuals requiring financial assistance during litigation processes. As a result of significant growth, they are looking for an experienced Lending Officer to join their CBD based team.

Your Opportunity

Reporting to the Operations Director, you will be handling loan applications and processing, working directly with customers.

Your experience in a lending environment will ensure you are able to manage all aspects of administration, including drawdowns and repayments, statement runs and data maintenance.

You will also communicate regularly with lawyers to ensure the loan process is managed smoothly and that all stakeholders are kept informed and up to date with progress and change.

Analysing applications, assessing credit risk and preparing loan contracts will be a regular part of your day, managing the process right through to settlement and beyond.

Our client needs a mature, experienced individual who can represent the organisation professionally as well as manage risk and reporting of your portfolio.

Your Profile

This is not an entry level role - you will be an experienced Lending Officer likely from a bank or credit union. Specifically, you will bring experience with consumer lending products (including personal loans) and will have been the first point of contact for customers. Additionally, exposure to the legal industry will be highly regarded.

Experience working in a highly regulated and governance focused environment will be essential, and most importantly, you bring excellent communication skills and attention to detail, ensuring the customer's experience is positive and engaging.

An administration superstar, you can juggle multiple priorities whilst paying attention to the detail, and work in an extremely organised and efficient manner.

A positive and warm approach along with highly developed emotional intelligence, is essential in this environment, as you will be working with customers experiencing emotional and stressful times. Your role is to provide solutions with a simple and effective approach, whilst ensuring best practice regulatory compliance.

Your Benefits

Working in a small and busy team, you will enjoy working in their CBD office with flexibility to work from home 2-3 days/week for full time staff, once you are up and running and adding value (after 3 months probation). After this time, you will need to be on site Tuesdays and Fridays (at a minimum).

Our client will consider candidates on either a full time, or part time basis (at least 4 days/week).

Salary is $120,000 including GST (pro rata for part time). You must have an ABN and will be paid as an independent contractor, therefore will cover your own insurances, super and tax.

There is a strong possibility for this role to become permanent as the business grows.
