- Implementing and documenting effective hardship processes
- Building and maintaining strong relationships with senior management and other internal teams
- Compliance with all regulatory obligations including the NCCP Act, Privacy Act, ASIC Regulatory Guides and AML/KYC requirements
- Inbound and Outbound customer contact will be required

**What type of background will make you successful?**
- 2+ years’ experience and demonstrated high performance in an unsecured or secured hardship role
- A strong understanding of hardship regulations
- Extraordinary verbal communication ability and powers of persuasion

If being in a dynamic industry as part of a market-leading fintech sounds like you, then come help us reshape Australia’s financial eco-system for the good.

In return, you will enjoy a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship to take your career further. We offer hybrid work with WFH days, flexible working hours and volunteer and study leave to develop your skills. We also have monthly social events, office snacks, company Townhalls and D&I initiatives and events to connect.
