Mr Hair has spent more than 20 years in the industry and previously served as chief executive of both ALI Group and PLAN Australia.
Homeloans chief executive Scott McWilliam said Mr Hair would help take Homeloans to the next level.
“His well-honed industry knowledge and insights, astute commercial skills and proven leadership skills perfectly complement our business and the direction we are taking,” he said.
“In particular, his in-depth understanding of the broker market and its distinct challenges will continue to stand us in good stead.”
Mr Hair told The Adviser that his decision to join Homeloans was an easy one to make.
“It is an established non-bank lender with a strong brand, and it has the potential to leverage growth in the third-party mortgage market and the improving funding markets,” he said.
Mr Hair said his main challenge would be to “significantly increase growth” by building a dynamic team of BDMs to partner with brokers.
“My new role is focused on growth, growing the sales team, growing broker numbers and growing new business,” he told The Adviser.
