Join one of Australia's fastest-growing non-bank lenders.

At First Federal, we're building something different. We've combined experienced credit professionals, common-sense decision making and market-leading service to create a lending business that brokers genuinely enjoy working with.

As we continue to grow, we're looking for experienced Credit Analysts to play a key role in shaping credit outcomes and helping drive the next stage of our success. 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.

Why This Role Is Different

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. If you're looking for a role where your decisions matter, your ideas are heard, and your career can accelerate alongside a rapidly growing lender, we'd love to hear from you.
