How often does someone on the Credit/Risk side make the move to Sales? 

The mentality is totally different. Whilst one waits to have a file passed to them to check if all things meet the requirements so as not to "harm" the lender they work for, the other is constantly out there hunting for new business, facing not only rejection but the pressure of sales targets. Dealing with credit and customers at the same time.  In this Podcast, Dien speaks to Marco Symons about his accidental journey into finance. First as a credit analyst, then his move into sales. How his Father played an influential part in his mental toughness and business savvy.   

We chat about his journey from Employed to Self Employed. Often times Finance Brokers entering industry start out in residential lending before they dabble in the commercial space, not so for Marco Symons who has taken the leap by doing the opposite. Have a listen to the podcast and find out why this was the case.
