A steady flow of pre-qualified warm leads
Full administrative and compliance support
The chance to deliver whole-of-market mortgage and protection advice
Opportunities to expand into wills, trusts, commercial finance, and utility brokering

You’ll work closely with clients from first enquiry to final completion, delivering compliant, tailored advice while helping people make life-changing decisions with confidence.

Requirements:

CeMAP (or equivalent) qualification – essential
Proven experience giving both mortgage and protection advice
Strong commercial awareness and attention to compliance
Excellent communication and organisational skills
A proactive mindset and high level of personal accountability

What You’ll Get in Return

A competitive basic salary

Consistent flow of quality warm leads
Full back-office and compliance support
Access to a broad panel of lenders and insurers
Involvement in wills & estate planning, commercial finance, and more
Incentives such as company holidays abroad (on target achievement)
A supportive team culture with clear progression opportunities
Why This Role Stands Out

This isn’t just about sales. It’s about delivering meaningful advice, building long-term client relationships, and growing your professional reputation within a respected firm.
