“Being part of a family-owned business with such a strong growth mindset and large market share means we can make a real difference to the industry and customers.
“I look forward to applying my experience to help drive LMG’s next stage of growth,” she said.
LMG currently supports over 6,000 brokers and advisers after recently subsuming PLAN Australia, Choice Aggregation, and FAST (PCF) brokers under the one brand.
The business spans across both Australia and New Zealand LMG brokers in both countries helping over 300,000 customers settle over $130 billion worth of loans in 2022 and reaching a collective loan book of $350 billion.
