Credit Analyst - Australia

Join an award-winning Sydney-based mortgage broking firm in a fully remote credit role, with access to a panel of more than 40 lenders and well over a thousand loan products, and a team that wants you to build a long-term career with them.

Role Summary
The Credit Analyst owns the credit side of the loan journey, from assessing client financials and running servicing calculations through to structuring, packaging and lodging applications and managing them to unconditional approval. Day to day you will review income, liabilities, living expenses and credit reports, test borrowing capacity across multiple lenders, research credit policy and product niches, and recommend the best-fit lender and structure for each scenario. You will then prepare complete, compliant applications, order valuations and pricing, and liaise with lenders, assessors and BDMs to keep every file moving. Working closely with the brokers as their analytical engine, you will keep the CRM and file notes accurate so the team always knows exactly where each deal sits, and you will support scenario workshopping across home loans, investment lending, refinances and the occasional commercial deal.
