A senior executive at NAB has jumped ship to take on the general manager role at AFG Home Loans.

Cameron Smith, former head of risk in wholesale banking at National Australia Bank, has taken the role after more than 20 years in the banking and finance industry.

AFG managing director Brett McKeon welcomed Mr Smith to the management team and said both he and the board were looking forward to the new strategic direction the appointment will bring.

“AFG is thrilled to have attracted someone of Cameron’s calibre at such a pivotal time for the company,” Mr McKeon said.

Heading up a national sales team, the focus of Cameron’s role at AFG will be the strategic development, sales and general management of this growing division within the company.

“Cameron’s experience within the mortgage market and his significant exposure to warehouse funding presented us with the perfect match in terms of who we were looking for,” Mr McKeon added.

Mr Smith said he was excited to come to the company after recent results affirm AFG’s place as the nation’s largest broker.

“AFG itself has experienced such tremendous growth in the past few years. To be able to help drive the company’s internal home loans division to achieve the same levels of success is something I’m very much looking forward to,” Mr Smith said.

He is relocating from Melbourne to be based at AFG’s Perth head office.
