The Colchester-headquartered firm has 618 brokers and claimed it was on target to reach its goal of recruiting 1,500 brokers by 2027; a total which it said will be comprised of 1000 self-employed brokers, 425 employed and 75 wealth advisers.
Just Mortgages operates throughout the UK, selling both mortgages and protection. Its brokers offer independent mortgage advice in addition to other financial solutions. It offers advice on mortgages including buy-to-let and new build products.
Just Mortgages said it aimed to become one of the largest mortgage broker firms in the UK by attracting brokers already in the industry but that expected most growth would continue to come via its academy initiative.
Just Learning, which launched earlier this month provides blended learning and is a standalone proposition. Those who graduate will be offered an interview with a sales manager to discuss joining Just Mortgages on an employed or self-employed basis.
Just Learning focuses on the CeMAP 1 qualification and includes in-depth sales skills and client management training. It is structured over two weeks which can be taken either together or at different times.
John Phillips (pictured), national operations director at Just Mortgages said: “The recruitment team just deliver month after month, and we are thrilled to welcome new brokers to the Just Mortgages family.”
He added: “Once brokers are qualified that is very much the beginning of the journey with us, not the end. Their success is our success, and it is our job to provide brokers with the tools they need to deliver the best possible service to their clients. Over the next few years as rate rises and cost of living begins to bite into household budgets, the value of advice will increase substantially.
“We are going to play our part in ensuring that there is a strong and professional mortgage advice sector to help individuals and families with their borrowing and protection goals.”
