ISCOVER
The fintech platform has announced Adam Barker as its new state manager for Queensland, Northern Territory, and Western Australia.
The Sydney-based non-bank finance specialist fintech company FINSTREET Group has added to their sales distribution team with the appointment of Mr Barker, who brings 20 years of experience in the broking community as a senior financial services executive.
Mr Barker’s appointment now takes the FINSTREET sales team to seven, working alongside Ron Galvan (state manager, NSW and ACT); Kim Tran (state manager, Victoria, Tasmania, and South Australia); and senior business development managers (BDMs) Margie Daep in NSW and ACT; and Nathan Armstrong in Queensland, Northern Territory, and Western Australia.
FINSTREET chief executive Boban Jurisic said the new appointee is “recognised as a leader across the mortgage industry, with extensive experience in aggregation as well as guiding large, diverse sales distribution mortgage teams to achieve their full potential”.
“We’re excited to have him working with us supporting the business, and all our partners — brokers, introducers, referrers, borrowers and investors,” Mr Jurisic said.
Mr Jurisic notified that the fintech will be appointing a senior BDM based in Melbourne and a senior BDM based in NSW.
“This rounds out key recent executive team appointments, with Catherine McFarlane as our inaugural group chief operating officer, and Neville Anitelea, as head of marketing,” he added.
On his appointment, Mr Barker said: “I’m passionate about helping our partners and finance specialists achieve real success and accelerated growth, I’m thrilled to be joining a team with a great reputation in the industry.”
