    As a Commercial Lending Officer, you’ll work closely with brokers, customers, vendors and internal teams to ensure commercial finance applications are accurate, compliant and progressing efficiently.
    You’ll have genuine ownership of the administration process, identifying roadblocks, following up stakeholders and making sure nothing falls through the cracks.

    • Maintain accurate records across lending and workflow systems, including Nimo and/or Decisions
    • Identify roadblocks, resolve issues and proactively follow up to ensure a smooth customer and broker experience
    • Provide administrative support to the Sales, Credit and Settlements teams

    What You Bring:

    • Experience in commercial lending, asset finance, equipment finance, broker support or financial services
    • Strong attention to detail, organisation and ability to manage competing priorities
    • Confident communicator who enjoys building relationships with brokers, customers and internal stakeholders
    • Understanding of Australian business structures, lending documentation and compliance requirements
    • Strong systems and computer skills, ideally with experience using lending or workflow platforms
    • A proactive, solutions-focused mindset with a strong sense of ownership and follow-through
    • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-volume environment while maintaining accuracy and professionalism
    • A relevant finance/business qualification is desirable, but equivalent industry experience will be considered
