Role: Self-Employed Mortgage Adviser

Location: Gloucester Based within an award-winning Estate Agency

Type: Self-Employed / Contract Earnings: OTE £50,000+ (Uncapped Commission)

Support: Full PI Insurance, FCA Oversight, and Lead Flow provided

Do you want the stability of a high-quality lead flow from an award-winning Estate Agency?

Are you looking for a competitive commission structure where you keep up to up to 90% of your fees?

Would you value working alongside a seasoned business owner who is invested in your professional growth?

The Opportunity:

We are seeking a driven and resilient CeMAP qualified Mortgage Adviser to join a high-performing, boutique brokerage. This is a dedicated self-employed position designed for an ambitious professional who values autonomy but wants the backing of a respected brand and a steady stream of introduced business.

Operating from within a premier local Estate Agency, you will work alongside a highly experienced Principal who is committed to your professional development and increasing your long-term earning potential.

Remuneration & Commission Structure:

This role offers a highly competitive commission split, rewarding both introduced leads and self-sourced business:

50% Commission on all introduced cases.

70% Commission on all self-sourced cases.

90% Share of all client fees.

90% Share of life insurance referral fees.

Earnings Illustration: Based on a modest volume of 120 cases per year (108 introduced and 12 self-sourced), expected annual earnings are circa £48,000 - £50,000+.

Initial Support: To support your transition into this self-employed role, a monthly retainer of £1,500 – £2,500 is available for the first 3–6 months (provided as a recoverable draw).

Key Responsibilities

Expert Advice: Provide high-quality, compliant mortgage and protection advice to a diverse client base.

Pipeline Management: Manage introduced cases from initial enquiry through to completion with a focus on "doing things properly."

Business Development: While leads are provided, you will have the freedom to nurture and grow your own client bank.

Client Journey: Deliver a seamless, supportive, and person-centred experience at every stage of the process.

Market Awareness: Maintain an up-to-the-minute understanding of lender criteria, regulatory changes, and market trends.

Candidate Requirements

CeMAP Qualification: Essential.

Proven experience in mortgage advising with a focus on accuracy and compliance.

The "grit" and ambition required to thrive in a fast-paced agency environment.

Excellent communication skills and the ability to build trust quickly with clients and estate agency partners.

The ability to work as a self-motivated individual within a small, collaborative team.

Infrastructure & Support Provided

Our client provides a comprehensive "plug-and-play" setup to ensure your success from day one:

Systems: Access to Finova/Ekeeper (CRM), Twenty7Tec, Mortgage Broker Tools, and Knowledge Bank.

Compliance: Full compliance cover, PI Insurance, and FCA oversight included.

Office Space: Dedicated desk, office facilities, and business cards provided.

Training: Direct mentorship from a seasoned business owner and ongoing operational support.

Why Apply?

If you are tired of being "just a number" in a large firm and want a role that combines the freedom of being self-employed with the lead-flow of a busy estate agency, this is the perfect move. You will be part of a business that prioritises integrity, quality advice, and long-term client care.
