Brokers now write more than 8 in 10 new home loans in Australia — a record, and still climbing. Achieve Lending Solutions has relocated to Townsville, but the client base is still Gold Coast-focused — a decade spent building the business there before the move north. The business is Connective-accredited, specialising in residential deal structuring, solution-based lending and property investment growth, with clients also spanning SMSF and some commercial lending.
What's missing is someone here to build a North Queensland client base to match, as the owner has other business ventures consuming a lot of his time. This isn't a trail book to babysit — it's a business to build under a brand with the accreditation, systems and support already sorted: a live loan book on day one, an approved processing team handling the paperwork, and equity on the table once you've proven you can grow it.
What you'll actually be doing:
- Servicing an existing Gold Coast client base (from Townsville) — an income floor while you build, not the whole job
- Building a North Queensland client base from the ground up — your own network, your own settlements, your own name
- Structuring and placing residential investment lending as your core focus, with scope to take on SMSF and commercial deals — from experience or a willingness to learn
- Handing files to our approved processing team for preparation and submission — they carry the admin so you can focus on new business
- Working largely self-sufficiently, with direct access to an experienced principal broker for deals that need a second opinion
- Doing it properly — compliant files, honest advice, relationships that outlast the transaction
What you'll need:
- Current Australian mortgage broking credentials (Cert IV/Diploma in Finance & Mortgage Broking) and eligibility to operate under an aggregator's credit licence
- A settlement track record — this is an experienced-broker role, not an entry point
- Comfort working independently, judged on outcomes rather than hours
- An existing Townsville/North Queensland client base or referral network, or the drive to build one
- Honesty with clients, even when it's not the easy answer
Useful but not essential:
- Commercial or SMSF experience (or a willingness to learn)
- Connective familiarity
- Experience with Mercury and Quickli
- Contacts among Townsville accountants, financial planners or real estate agents
What's on offer:
- Remuneration structured around you — PAYG salary plus bonus or self-employed commission split, negotiated on your experience
- A live client base plus full back-office systems and software from day one
- An approved processing team handling loan admin, so your time goes into leads and settlements
- Genuine autonomy — you run your patch
- An office for client meetings, with scope to work from home or a hybrid arrangement
- A future equity stake for a broker who proves they can grow the business
- Direct mentoring from an experienced principal broker, without someone looking over your shoulder
