Loan Market Edge is on the lookout for a confident, driven and technically sharp Lending Specialist to join our high-performing team on the Gold Coast.

This role owns the credit behind every loan we write: running serviceability across our lender panel, finding the lender and structure that fit, vetting the file before it goes anywhere near a bank, and writing the rationale that gets it approved.

Our brokers bring the client; you bring the way to a yes.

Getting the credit right on day one is where our customers for life approach begins.

For 16 years we have helped Queenslanders into their homes, and more than 500 of our clients have left us five-star Google reviews.

Many of them thank a team member by name.

In this role, that could be you.
