Yakka Finance

Sydney

This isn't a typical broker role. This is for a person who wants to learn how to become one of the best in Australia.

Some brokers have to do everything themselves. At Yakka Finance, we've built a business model where the right person has the correct infrastructure to service their clients and has a great team and brand already sitting behind them. So they can focus on what matters: building relationships, great execution, writing volume and getting rewarded for high activity.

We're a boutique, award-winning asset finance brokerage operating out of a brand recent A-grade office at 60 Castlereagh Street, Sydney CBD, and we're looking for our next gun Commercial (and Consumer) Finance Broker to join our team.

Our Managing Director has won Asset Finance Broker of the Year at the Australian Broking Awards in 2022, 2023, and 2025 and for the right person and attitude in this role, there is a genuine pathway to inheriting his entire client database as he transitions to leading the business in the years. That's a $400k+ salary per year opportunity for the right individual. But it all starts with the right attitude, coachability and behaviours.

The Earning Pathway

- Year 1–3: Really master your Craft, learn and listen how to build up clients with our formula & brand with the MD's mentorship, the right behaviours, and your full team behind you
- As you learn more: Demonstrate the right behaviours with content, coachability, organisation, relationship management and building and executing. The opportunity here with the right behaviours gets a lot of reward
- Long term: MD hands his client database to the right dedicated person → pathway to easily $400k + per year as you mature into one of the best brokers in the country

Your Four Person Team This is what sets Yakka apart. Every broker operates with a dedicated team built around them:

- Dedicated Support Person — 4 years' experience across banking portals, basic credit submissions, settlements, and all non-revenue admin activity. Not just admin but a genuine team member who complements your strengths. He has been the MD's support person for 3 years.
- Dedicated Partnerships Manager – huge advantage for you as you have your own salesperson out on the road, building referral pipelines with mortgage brokers, accountants, and machinery dealerships/salesman, and feeding leads back to you. Working closely with our partnerships manager allows you to obtain even more opportunities in your pipeline if you invest the time. The key here is working together to spot as many opportunities as possible and going after it.
- The MD himself - actively mentoring you in years 1 and 2, listening closely, having the right conversations, following the formula, and actioning all the right steps will guarantee you volume and increased income.
- Dedicated Marketing Manager - as your personal brand becomes more important you have your own Marketing Manager helping you shoot content on a regular basis so the market can understand who you are,



your personality and your skillset. To be valuable in 2026 you have to be visible with so many competitors now in this space.

The key thing is we invest heavily in our brokers - it works, and it fast-tracks the right person if they lean in and execute. You focus on relationships and doing deals correctly. Your team complements you in handling the rest. Technology Working for you (not instead of you)

Yakka has a dedicated Operations Manager who actively utilises automation and AI to make your job faster and easier, from processing and deal-writing support through to workflow efficiencies.

But make no mistake: you are still the number one asset in the room. Knowing where to place debt, which lenders to work with, how to correctly do a full doc transaction, knowing how to navigate exposure limits, how to effectively communicate and how to structure the right deal for the right client that expertise is irreplaceable, and it's what we're hiring for.

We will be investing in your Personal Brand The market is changing. Being front-of-mind, building views and impressions, and showing you are who you say you are is increasingly how the best brokers are going to win in 2026 and beyond. We put real marketing dollar investment behind every broker's personal brand content, social, and digital.

You have to be willing to lean into this to be a successful applicant at Yakka and the compound effect it will have on your pipeline over time is enormous, as the reach will be large when you stay consistent.
