Job Type: Employed or Self-Employed

Cameron James Professional Recruitment is delighted to be working in partnership with a highly successful estate agency and financial services business to recruit an experienced Hybrid Mortgage Advisor / Hybrid Mortgage Broker to join its thriving operation in Preston. This is an exceptional opportunity for a motivated and ambitious Mortgage Advisor looking to join a business that offers genuine estate agency lead generation, hybrid working, outstanding earning potential and long-term career progression.

Working from a busy city centre estate agency branch, you'll become part of a well-established financial services team that has built an excellent reputation for delivering exceptional customer service and consistently achieving outstanding results. The business has developed a strong financial services culture across its branch network, ensuring Mortgage Advisors receive a constant flow of warm, qualified mortgage appointments generated directly through the estate agency.

This opportunity provides a steady pipeline of high-quality opportunities. The Preston branch enjoys excellent levels of property activity, with an average property value of around £190,000 and premium homes regularly exceeding £1.2 million, creating an excellent mix of residential mortgage opportunities.

This is a genuine hybrid role, although the successful Mortgage Advisor will initially spend approximately three to four days each week working from the Preston branch. Once established, you'll enjoy the flexibility of hybrid working, balancing office-based appointments with remote telephone and video consultations.

The successful adviser can expect to receive around 20 to 25 qualified mortgage appointments each month, resulting in approximately 8 to 10 completed mortgage applications. Average case sizes are around £1,800, while strong protection opportunities and excellent conversion rates create significant additional earning potential.

You'll also benefit from additional referral and overflow business generated by other successful branches across the wider region, ensuring a consistent flow of opportunities throughout the year.

As a Hybrid Mortgage Advisor, you'll provide whole-of-market mortgage and protection advice to a broad range of clients, including first-time buyers, home movers, remortgage customers and property investors. You'll conduct appointments face-to-face within the branch, over the telephone and via video, guiding clients through every stage of the mortgage process while delivering exceptional customer service and maintaining the highest FCA compliance standards.

One of the key attractions of this opportunity is the level of support available. You'll benefit from a dedicated mortgage administration team, experienced compliance professionals and supportive management, allowing you to spend more time advising clients and less time dealing with paperwork.

For employed advisers, the package includes a basic salary of up to £35,000, including car allowance, together with uncapped commission, monthly performance bonuses, attractive commission splits, pension, Death-in-Service benefit and ongoing professional development.

For experienced advisers seeking greater flexibility, a self-employed option is also available. This offers 70% commission on self-generated business and 45% commission on company-generated leads, together with full compliance support, dedicated mortgage administration and an established introducer network.

To be considered, applicants should hold CeMAP (or equivalent) together with Competent Adviser Status (CAS) and previous experience working as a Mortgage Advisor or Mortgage Broker. Strong residential mortgage and protection knowledge, excellent communication skills and a genuine passion for delivering exceptional customer outcomes are essential.

If you're looking for a Mortgage Advisor opportunity that combines high-quality estate agency leads, hybrid working, excellent support and realistic earnings of £75,000+, this is one of the strongest opportunities currently available in the Preston market.
