Working Hours & Conditions: AU Working Hours and Holidays

Employment:
Full Time - Independent Contractor

The company is a referral-based Australian mortgage brokerage dedicated to delivering seamless, client-focused lending solutions. Operating on a model of quality over high-volume churn, the firm manages approximately 8–10 loan files per month. The company prides itself on accurate credit analysis, thorough policy research, and end-to-end efficiency, providing tailored support to clients while maintaining the highest standards of compliance.

As a Senior Mortgage Credit Analyst , you will take complete ownership of residential loan files once client documentation is returned—driving them through detailed assessment, broker-approved lender selection, lodgement, formal approval, and settlement.

In this role, you will bridge the gap between initial client qualification by the Principal Broker and final loan settlement. You will handle the heavy lifting of detailed serviceability calculations, policy research, file preparation, and operational progression, allowing the broker to focus on client relationships and advice. This position offers high operational autonomy within clear decision boundaries, making it ideal for a proactive credit professional who takes initiative, identifies gaps, and presents structured solutions.

• Coordinate directly with lenders, clients, and conveyancers to clear outstanding conditions and satisfy settlement requirements.
• Provide clients with regular operational updates regarding file status and next steps while keeping Mercury tasks and milestones fully up to date.

• Independently drive routine file progression, anticipating next steps without requiring prompting.
• Deliver concise progress updates to the Principal Broker, highlighting blockers, upcoming deadlines, and required decisions.
