Mr Wright brings over 20 years of experience as a mortgage broker and formerly owned the aggregator’s largest franchise – MoneyQuest Wollongong – and sold the business in 2021 and launched his own broker coaching business.
In 2021, Mr Wright hit $1 billion in paid settlements as the MoneyQuest Wollongong principal and owner.
Mr Wright began his career with the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA), where he spent a decade as a mobile lender and business analyst before switching to mortgage broking in April 2002.
In his new role, Mr Wright will be responsible for providing member support across a variety of areas, with a focus on facilitating business growth and helping Money Quest Group brokers transition into business owners.
In addition, Mr Wright will take charge of enhancing the group’s existing suite of business planning, professional development, and lender education programs designed to assist Money Quest Group members to build sustainable and successful businesses.
On his appointment, Mr Wright commented: “Whilst I’ve really enjoyed taking some time to rest and recharge after 20-plus years of running a business, I’m now ready to jump back into full time work and hit the ground running.
“I have learnt countless lessons about what to do and what not to do in business over the journey, and I can’t wait to share these insights and best practices with our member network.
“I’m also looking forward to assisting brokers to maximise the many opportunities available within our industry, and helping them to achieve success.”
Money Quest Group managing director Michael Russell said he’s thrilled to welcome Mr Wright back into the group and is “confident that his experience and expertise will prove invaluable to the group’s 400-plus franchise and aggregation members”.
“Paul built his business from the ground up, so he can relate to all of our members, regardless of how big, small, young, or established their businesses are,” Mr Russell concluded.
“He will help our new-to-industry members to achieve success sooner, and support our more experienced brokers with making the step changes they need to grow.
“I have no doubt that our network of franchise and aggregation members will benefit enormously from Paul’s wisdom and experience, and we’re delighted to be welcoming a professional of his calibre to our head office team.”
