Mortgage brokers are not famous for their content. We’d like to fix that.

We’re Focus Finance, a Newcastle mortgage brokerage that’s grown quickly by doing good work, looking after clients and building a team of genuinely great people.

We’re ambitious, we set high standards and we like winning. But low ego is a big deal here. We take the work seriously, we just don’t take ourselves too seriously.

And yes, we’ve been winning a bit lately:

- #1 Regional Brokerage in Australia (MPA Top 50), 2026

- National Broker of the Year (MFAA Excellence Awards), 2026

- Westpac Australian Broker of the Year (Australian Mortgage Awards), 2025

- Best Regional Office (Better Business Awards), 2026

The problem? We’re so busy doing the things that win us awards that we forget about telling anyone about them.

We’ve got the people, the personalities, the stories and enough questionable office behaviour to keep a content calendar full for the next decade.

What we don’t have is someone whose actual job is turning all that chaos into content.

? So, what’s the actual job?

We want someone to turn the Focus Finance brand and our brokers into some of the most recognisable personalities in Australian finance, across Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn and Facebook. Not another finance page posting interest rate updates and stock photos of people holding house keys. Please, no.

Day to day:

- Convincing ridiculously busy mortgage brokers that yes, they do need to stop and make a TikTok. Bribery and snacks may be required.

- Ghostwriting posts that sound like the person you’re writing for. If we wanted generic corporate waffle, we’d ask ChatGPT. No offence, ChatGPT.

- Planning, filming and editing reels, interviews and behind-the-scenes content.

- Building content calendars and keeping everyone accountable, including the people convinced they’re too busy for social media.

- Pitching stories to The Adviser, Australian Broker and MPA.

- Tracking growth and engagement.



Because while we love a good laugh, we also love results.

And occasionally telling someone that no, they absolutely cannot post that. Good judgement essential.

This isn’t a role where you’ll spend your days begging management to approve a Canva graphic.

You’ll have genuine creative freedom, direct access to the people making decisions and the opportunity to build something from the ground up.

We don’t want someone to just maintain our social media accounts.

We want someone who can make people actually WANT to follow a mortgage broker. A challenge, we know.

? Who’s going to thrive here?

You’re creative, a little bit cheeky, ridiculously organised and know the difference between genuinely funny and painfully cringe.

You can walk into a room full of big personalities, hold your own and somehow convince everyone that filming content was their idea.

You see something happening and immediately think, “That would make a bloody positive reel.” You can write, film, edit and actually execute, because ideas are lovely, but we need someone who gets s**t done.

You don’t need someone standing over your shoulder telling you what to do every five minutes. You see opportunities, take ownership and run with them.

And most importantly, you actually give a s**t about the quality of what you produce.

Ideally you’ve got 2 to 5 years managing social media, you’re confident with short-form video, and you know jumping on every trend isn’t a strategy. Experience growing personal brands is a HUGE advantage. Finance, PR or paid social experience is a bonus.

You understand trends,



algorithms, hooks and analytics.

? What’s the team actually like?

Loud, passionate, ridiculously supportive and very likely to be singing, dancing or talking absolute rubbish at any given moment. We celebrate wins like we’ve just won the grand final, take the piss out of each other constantly and somehow get an extraordinary amount of work done in between.

If you love being surrounded by ambitious humans who push each other to be better, celebrate each other’s success and have a bloody good laugh along the way, you’ll fit right in.

We’re not everyone’s cup of tea. But for the right person, we’re a bloody valuable place to work.

From a content perspective? You’ve basically walked into a reality TV show with a mortgage broking licence. You’re welcome.

What’s in it for you?

- $65,000 to $80,000 + super, depending on experience

- Hybrid flexibility, in the office when there’s content to capture

- Actual creative freedom, not micromanagement

- A HUGE opportunity to build something. We’re growing rapidly, and there’s enormous potential to take our social media presence somewhere pretty special.

- A pathway to Social Media Manager, with a salary review after 12 months based on agreed KPIs

If you’re positive, we’ll back you. If you’re REALLY good, we’ll probably wonder how we ever survived without you.

? Think you’re our person?

Please don’t send us a cover letter that starts with “I am writing to express my keen interest in the advertised position.” We’ll cry.

We want to know who YOU are.

Send your resume, a little about yourself and SHOW US WHAT YOU CAN DO: two or three examples of content you’ve created or accounts you’ve grown.

If you’ve already made a mortgage broker look cool on social media, you’re performing miracles and we’d LOVE to meet you.

Come make some noise with us. ?
