Non-Bank & Private Lenders Recruitment
From credit to product, operations to growth, we help Australia’s most innovative lenders hire smarter.
We help mortgage brokerages, aggregators and non-bank lenders across Australia recruit high-performing mortgage brokers, BDMs, credit analysts, and support staff. Our specialist recruitment process is built for long-term fit, speed, and strategic impact.
The modern lending sector demands a different kind of recruiter.
Non-bank lenders and private credit providers aren’t hiring for legacy roles. They need sharp, commercially-minded people who understand regulatory complexity, tech-driven workflows, customer experience, and performance accountability.
Platinum People Group specialises in recruitment for the third-party and alternative lending ecosystem. We know what high-performing talent looks like across:
- Product-driven fintechs launching innovative credit solutions
- Non-bank lenders scaling broker or B2B2C distribution
- Private lenders needing risk-mature growth operators
We recruit across the full lending lifecycle, from origination to servicing, from product to sales.
Strategic Hiring Outcomes
Hiring for Non-Bank Financial Institutions is high-risk and high-impact. We get it right.
You don’t hire for a non-bank the same way you hire for the big 4.
The right people need to be fast, commercially minded, and compliance-ready, without the safety net of layers and legacy systems.
We place:
• BDMs who win and grow broker relationships
• Credit Assessors with strong DTI/NCCP/AML understanding
• Settlements & Support Staff who keep things moving
• Channel & Sales Leaders who drive national reach
Private lending is high-trust, high-stakes work.
You need hires who understand risk, reputation, and return.
We place:
• Portfolio Managers & Credit Analysts who make sound lending calls
• BDMs with the presence to handle high-value relationships
• Legal–Ops hybrids to manage docs, risk and due diligence
• GMs & COOs who can scale the business with control
Fast growth demands focused recruitment.
Built for speed, substance, and low-risk hiring
Embedded Discovery
We start with stakeholder interviews to understand your roadmap, product evolution, broker/channel strategy, and org structure.
Search-First Strategy
We don’t rely on ads. We headhunt passive candidates, often placed within competitors, parallel industries, or under NDA.
Capability Mapping
We match candidates not just on experience, but velocity: time-to-ramp, prior scale-up exposure, and startup vs enterprise adaptability.
Risk Mitigation
We assess for compliance exposure, cultural fragility, burnout flags, and pre-exit behaviour.
Our clients include VC-backed fintechs, challenger lenders, aggregator-aligned platforms, and private capital-backed providers
