ThinkPrivate is Australia's leading private credit comparison and origination technology platform, built as an intermediary for brokers and debt advisors to non-bank lenders, private credit funds and family offices for real estate-backed commercial lending.
ThinkPrivate has 35+ lenders to compare in real time & 1,500+ brokers nationwide, transacting across bridging, development and other commercial scenarios.
Our ambition is easy. Every private credit transaction in Australia should run through ThinkPrivate.
Role Overview
As a BDM at a private or non-bank lender, you sell one book, one appetite, one credit team. At ThinkPrivate you provide brokers with a platform that puts 35+ lenders in a side-by-side comparison.
This role owns broker growth in your market. Onboarding new brokers, then making sure they actually use the platform and keep coming back. Sign-ups are the start, transactions are the measure.
What You'll Do
- Own broker acquisition across your state: identify, approach and sign brokers and debt advisors active in commercial and private lending.
- Drive usage, not just registrations. Get new brokers to their first deal on the platform quickly, then to their second and third.
- Work live scenarios with brokers: help them structure the deal, shape it to lender appetite, and land on the right funding options.
- Run demos, training sessions and in-person meetings across your market,
and build relationships with aggregators, broker groups and industry networks.
- Maintain a clear pipeline and report accurately on activity, sign-ups and platform usage.
- Feed insight back to the business: which scenarios brokers are struggling to place, and where the lender panel has gaps.
Who You Are
- Proven broker-facing sales experience, ideally as a BDM at a private lender or non-bank lender, with an existing network of brokers writing commercial and private deals.
- Hands-on experience structuring private credit transactions across first mortgages, second mortgages and development finance.
- Self-directed and organised. Given a market, you can build a plan, work it and report clearly on where things stand.
- Comfortable being out of the office and in front of brokers, with travel across your state.
Why ThinkPrivate
- Attractive package: competitive base salary plus performance incentive.
- Potential equity participation: the opportunity to hold equity in a business at an inflection point.
- Ownership: you will run your market segment and work directly with the co-founders.
- A market with momentum: private credit is one of the fastest growing segments in Australian finance, and ThinkPrivate is how it reaches the broker market.
