by Adrian Suljanovic8 minute read

The aggregator has strengthened its presence in Victoria and Tasmania with a new sales executive hire.

Aggregator Connective has announced the appointment of Tracey Crevatin as its new sales executive for Victoria and Tasmania, further bolstering the aggregator’s presence in the southern states.

Connective looks to leverage Crevatin’s experience and industry connections in order to drive growth and “foster meaningful broker relationships”.

Carrying a career in the broking industry that spans over three decades, Crevatin’s role with Connective will have her focus on recruiting mortgage brokers and improving the company’s strategic value through tailored support and engagement.

According to Connective, her approach to sales and client relations is characterised by her “straightforward, persuasive, yet compassionate manner, ensuring that brokers’ needs are met with expertise and genuine care”.

Head of member acquisition at Connective, Iain Hemmings, commented on the new appointment: “Tracey’s addition to the team signifies Connective’s ongoing commitment to excellence and industry leadership.

“Her proven track record and passion for sales excellence will drive the company’s competitive edge and market share in Victoria and Tasmania.

“Tracey’s values align closely with Connective’s commitment to innovation, transparency, and supportive culture, making her a perfect fit for our future aspirations.”

The aggregator stated it looks forward to leveraging Crevatin’s network and insights to create deeper connections within the broker community and lauded her experience and proactive approach to problem solving.

“Tracey’s belief in the power of feedback and relationship-building will further enable brokers to thrive in an ever-evolving industry landscape,” it said.

On her appointment, Crevatin said: “Joining Connective feels like coming home to a team that truly values excellence and collaboration and aligns with my professional values.

“I am eager to contribute to our collective success and to support brokers in achieving their aspirations.”

This appointment came as Connective brokers settled $94.8 billion in 2023, as revealed in its financial results for the year ended 31 December 2023.

Connective stated that its residential settlements had “held steady” in 2023 – at around $87.6 billion – amid an “increasingly complex” lending environment as Australians endured rising interest rates. The aggregator’s 2022 calendar year results revealed that it had $80.1 billion in total residential settlements.

Meanwhile, commercial settlements rose to $10.9 billion, with November 2023 being its strongest-performing month, recording $1.18 billion in commercial settlements.

According to the group, it now has 30 per cent of the market share in commercial settlements and broker numbers.
