Summary

I have a proven track record at Household Capital, and I have been a key sales executive helping to grow the business for both of my tenures with the business.


For the past year I have helped to grow the profile of Household Capital amongst the broker community via many presentations at conferences, PD Days and one on one meetings. My passion for educating the broking profession about 'Home Equity for Retirees' will fuel my career at Household going forward. This passion is shared with my colleagues and in this new role I would endeavour to motivate and empower the team to build on their excellent relationships and work towards helping to enhance processes at Household.


I'm an organised and dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude. I have a willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals and I have proven this with my active management of the sales team's wellbeing for the past six months.
