Evan Thomas

Chief Operating Officer

Evan joined the Mortgage and Finance Association of Australia (MFAA) as Chief Operating Officer in 2015 and has been integral to driving industry reforms and member engagement through a challenging period for the mortgage and financial broking industry.

Leading the strategic implementation of the national advertising campaign ‘Don’t Kill Competition’ and partnering with industry stakeholders to defend the mortgage and finance broking industry during the 2018 Royal Commission is a key achievement and major highlight for Evan.

With over 30 years’ experience in corporate services including business development, sales, operations and information technology, Evan has driven and led organisational growth and service excellence across various industries including insurance and financial services.

He also brings over 18 years of C-level experience in financial services and health insurance at organisations including the Medibank Group and Illawarra Credit Union.

Evan holds an Executive MBA and a Graduate Diploma in Strategic Information Technology and Management from RMIT University. He is also a Graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors (GAICD).
