Just Mortgages' self-employed division nears milestone

Broker firm Just Mortgages will be holding three induction sessions this month, with one in the North and two in the South onboarding more than 30 new brokers.

The brokerage said its self-employed division is now gearing up for its busiest December ever as it nears its milestone of 500 brokers.

Alongside its employed division, which currently has over 150 brokers, Just Mortgages offers a platform for self-employed brokers to operate independently. Whether operating under the Just Mortgages umbrella or utilizing the ‘own brand’ facility, all brokers benefit from continuous mentoring, training, and support in sales, marketing, and compliance. Brokers also receive assistance in business expansion through various license options, leadership training, and recruitment support.

In the second quarter, the division received 52 applications and welcomed 48 new brokers in the first quarter.

“Rather than winding down at the end of the year, we have been ramping up our efforts to meet the demand to go self-employed with Just Mortgages,” said Carl Parker (pictured), national director at Just Mortgages. “Given the current climate and the leap of faith required to go self-employed, seeing such high and consistent levels of interest is hugely encouraging and a real testament to the valuable proposition we have built.

“That proposition has continued to evolve as the division has grown, enabling ambitious brokers to not only launch their own business, but write more business, enter new markets and eventually, expand their own team. A key component to this is the support structure put in place, increasing training routes through our learning and development team, and access to advice and real-world experience through our knowledgeable management team.

“With this structure in place, the talent in our division and a fantastic new cohort, 2024 promises to be an exciting year for the division – especially as we fast approach 500 brokers.”
