As a Director of mortgage aggregator Connective since 2006, and prior to that as CEO of mortgage aggregator FAST, Mark brings with him a wealth of knowledge across all aspects of mortgage broking and lending having started as a mortgage broker in the industry in 1996. His vast experience and expertise spans strategic management, operations, sales, relationship management, compliance and governance. He is also intimately acquainted with the industry’s work to guide and implement reforms to improve customer outcomes.
“I am honoured to join the board of the industry’s leading professional association, the MFAA,” he said.
