Perth-based brokers discusses six months of her journey into mortgage broking
Gemma Piscioneri, director and mortgage broker at G&T Finance, recently transitioned from a long-standing career in banking to co-running a growing mortgage brokerage in Western Australia alongside her husband, Tom.
Discussing the leap in this latest episode of MPA Pod, Piscioneri reflects on the biggest surprises and challenges she has faced, six months into the journey.
The relationship-based nature of broking, she says, has been both surprising and rewarding, although she advocates for a more standardised approach to the customer experience.
Piscioneri is also a strong advocate for women in finance, calling out the gender imbalance within the broking sector while sharing her belief that broking offers a flexible and empowering career path for women – yet the industry struggles to shake off perceptions around risk and lack of stability.
Listen now to hear Piscioneri’s valuable perspective from both sides of the mortgage transaction, plus a glimpse of what’s in store for G&T Finance and the Perth market going forward.
