As a qualified mechanical engineer, Andrew began his career in operations research and manufacturing systems. But it was clear that he would need to create his own opportunities to achieve the level of financial security he wanted for himself and his family.
Having decided to go self-employed, Andrew entered the mortgage industry in 1997 as co-founder of what was to become a very successful mortgage broking company, Capital Power Pty Ltd.
Utilising his engineering expertise, he instigated many pioneering processes that resulted in faster application-to-settlement turnaround times and improved customer experiences.
In 2003, Andrew co-founded Members First Broker Network Pty Ltd, a mortgage sub-aggregator which soon became one of the most successful super-groups in the industry. When it was sold in 2012, Andrew’s company had a mortgage portfolio of around $2 billion.
Andrew has a track record of helping new-to-industry mortgage brokers grow highly successful businesses. His innovative use of technology and systems has helped many mortgage brokers to make their businesses more profitable and robust. His influence and guidance as an MFAA Accredited Mentor have had a tremendous effect on transforming mortgage brokers and their businesses become very successful in the industry.
