Why Virtual Team

Five reasons clients stay past the first hire

Dedicated

One resource, only yours

No shared queue, no rotating cast. Your dedicated resource works exclusively for you and stays.

Leadership

25 years of Australian market experience

Founder Rohit Sahdev's 25 years in the Australian market, including senior leadership at Telstra, shape how every dedicated team is managed.

Transparent

You always know what your team is doing

Every dedicated resource works behind Screenshot Monitor — auditable activity and reporting, not a black box.

Flexible

No more "That's not my job."

Your dedicated outsourced resource adapts to what your business needs, takes ownership and grows their career by stepping up to new challenges.

Built for now

Capacity without the hiring squeeze

Skilled and reliable operational talent is harder to hire locally right now. A dedicated resource adds capacity without adding to that pressure.

The outcome this role is built for

A cleaner, more current loan book — because ongoing administration is someone's actual job, not an afterthought once the deal is done.

Role scope

What this role owns day to day

Core responsibilities

  • Process post-settlement loan variations and discharge requests
  • Maintain accurate loan file records across the book
  • Respond to lender and client administrative requests
  • Support portfolio-level reporting for the brokerage

Flexibility

Works your hours. Picks up the work.

Australian business hours

Aligned to your primary time zone and holiday calendar for day-to-day coverage.

9am–5pm style coverage, matched to your roster

Extended coverage

Stretch shift start/end times around settlement deadlines and month-end peaks.

Early-start or late-finish shifts, by agreement

Peak-season scaling

Additional dedicated resources during EOFY and peak refinance periods.

Scale up seats for seasonal volume, scale back down after

What "no that's not my job" looks like in practice: a lender's discharge process doesn't follow the usual steps — it still gets handled and documented properly instead of being left half-finished.

What stays with your authorised staff

Works to documented procedures; approvals, payments, regulated decisions remain with authorised local personnel.

Not exclusive to mortgage broking

The same skillset, in industries with their own paperwork-heavy pipeline

Strip away the lender-specific tools and this role is a recognisable shape: gather documents, verify them against a checklist, and move a case through defined stages against a deadline.

Common today

Doing this in-house with stretched staff, or paying a third party

  • Post-settlement admin gets deprioritised for new business
  • Loan book records drift out of date
  • Discharge requests take longer than they should
The alternative

A dedicated loan administration officer, outsourced to us

  • One resource whose only job is your loan book admin
  • Reports to your own operations lead, not a third party
  • Same Screenshot Monitor transparency, direct to you
Where this shape of role also fits

Financial Services & Insurance
