"The phenomenal growth that we have experienced has been in a large part to the support and training that we provide to brokers making the move to be self-employed."

It was established in March 2016 with the recruitment of Carl Parker who heads the division. It is  on target to bank £3.5million of income this year, and the division looks set to exceed sixty brokers by mid-year, as another 21 people have already applied to become a Just Mortgages self-employed broker.
 
To help support this growth, Carl’s team is being boosted by Ashley Edwards who joins Just Mortgages this month from LSL’s Reeds Rains. Ashley joins Rob Perrin and Ben Allkins to become the division’s third regional sales director, supporting self-employed brokers across the north of the country.

Just Mortgages set up its self-employed division for mortgage brokers who prefer to be self-employed and run their own businesses. Brokers making the move from employed to self-employed are shown how to set up their own business and how to create relationships with potential introducers, as well as receiving guidance in setting up a marketing and business plan.
 
Each broker then receives day-to-day training, development and compliance support from the Just Mortgages team as well as some of the highest procuration fees available. Just Mortgages self-employed brokers are also appointed representative of Openwork.
 
Carl Parker, head of Just Mortgages’ self-employed division, said: “I believe the phenomenal growth that we have experienced has been in a large part to the support and training that we provide to brokers making the move to be self-employed. Support that is not only provided on joining us but on an ongoing basis.  
 
“This support will be taken to a whole new level now with the recruitment of Ashley Edwards. Ashley’s knowledge and ability can only help to grow the Just Mortgages self-employed division still further, by providing a level of support that helps every broker to fulfil their maximum potential.”
 
Ashley Edwards added: “Just Mortgages provided me with a great opportunity not only to progress my own career, but to help progress that of other brokers too. It is a forward looking organisation with considerable growth plans and the fact that they are already exceeding these is a testament to what they also help brokers to achieve.”
