This is an opportunity for a high-performing credit professional who enjoys making deals happen, thrives in a commercial environment, and wants a genuine seat at the table rather than being another cog in a large corporate machine.

You'll work across a broad range of transactions including: Self-employed borrowers
Alt-doc and specialist lending
Commercial property transactions
Complex credit scenarios that require judgement and experience
What We're Looking ForWe're seeking people who: Have credit assessment experience and have held a lending delegation
Bring strong commercial acumen and risk management capability
Can balance policy, risk and customer outcomes
Enjoy solving complex lending scenarios
Communicate confidently with brokers and internal stakeholders
Have experience in non-bank, specialist or commercial lending
Thrive in a fast-paced, growth-oriented environment
Why This Role Is DifferentMany lenders talk about empowerment. At First Federal, you'll actually have it. We value experience, judgement and common sense. Our goal isn't to create more process for the sake of process. It's to find ways to say \"yes\" responsibly, deliver exceptional service to brokers, and provide real opportunities for talented people to grow with the business.
