Team Leader, Consumer Credit - Asset Finance

Morgan McKinley is partnering with a Non-Bank Lender looking for a Team Leader, focusing on Consumer Credit within the Asset Finance team. This is a hybrid role, with 4 days to be based in the Sydney office.

This role will own the consumer asset finance space, bringing recent, hands-on market knowledge to uplift performance and manage a high volume of deals, including significant refinancing flows.

• Manage a consistent flow of consumer asset finance deals, with a specific focus on high-volume refinancing.
• Prepare and approve applications within set delegations while escalating matters that fall outside of personal authority.
• Lead and upskill the credit team, with the future responsibility of hiring and onboarding new analysts as the department expands.
• Ensure all services align with National Consumer Credit Protection and AML/CTF/KYC regulatory frameworks.
• Use hands-on market expertise to improve credit processes, KPIs, and service level agreements.

Requirements:

• 3-5 years of experience in consumer credit, including holding a DLA of at least $150k and proven experience in a leadership role.
• Recent experience in consumer asset finance structures such as chattel mortgages, novated leases, and secured consumer auto loans.
• Knowledge of the Australian regulatory environment and a degree in Business or Accounting is desirable.
• Advanced skills in financial analysis and interpreting complex financial documents like tax returns and P&L statements.

The company provides continuous learning and growth opportunities. The business has excellent culture, with great collaboration and a friendly team. Whilst you're required to be in the office for 4 days a week and 1 day from home, they are very flexible!
