AFG welcomes new NSW partnerships manager

by Annie Kane11 minute read

A business lending specialist has joined aggregation AFG as its new partnerships manager for NSW.

ASX-listed aggregation group, Australian Finance Group (AFG), has announced that it has appointed Rohan Cubis to the role of partnerships manager for NSW.

Cubis was most recently a business development manager (BDM) at SME lender Prospa. Prior to this, he was the head of sales at Zip Business (now closed).

The new AFG partnerships manager also has experience in broker tools, having worked as CoreLogic Australia’s NSW state manager for SME business across the real estate, broker, developer, investor, local government, and new business verticals.

In his new position (which he started on 8 January), Cubis is managing a portfolio of mortgage broking businesses, providing personalised support to drive profitability, process efficiency, and customer service excellence while ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.

As partnerships manager for NSW, he will also build and nurture strong relationships with brokers, small-business owners, and industry partners to support business growth, leveraging CRM technology and marketing tools, and recruiting new broker members to the organisation.

Commenting on the new team member, AFG’s NSW state manager, Haley Bellamy, said Cubis was “highly regarded” across the industry and had been “already proving himself as a valuable asset within the seven-strong NSW team”.

“Rohan has extensive industry experience and a passion for supporting brokers to achieve their goals and to run more profitable businesses. Coupled with his genuine care for customer and exceptional CX [customer experience], he’s a valuable addition to our team,” Bellamy said.

“Feedback from our members has been extremely positive with many already holding trusted relationships with Rohan and being excited at the opportunity to be supported by his knowledge and experience as their partnership manager.”

The new appointment comes as AFG expands its business finance and asset finance support.

Last year, the aggregator fully acquired asset finance aggregation platform Fintelligence and appointed Michael McEvoy to the role of general manager for the Fintelligence group of companies.
