The Mortgage and Finance Association of Australia (MFAA) has appointed recruitment agency De Jager Executive Search as it officially begins its search for a new CEO, following Siobhan Hayden’s resignation in June.
According to a statement from the MFAA, several firms were assessed and the board decided that De Jager was the best placed to meet the association’s needs.
Applications are now open to MFAA employees, members and external candidates. De Jager will review all applications and provide a short list to the board for evaluation. Once the short list has been created, the board will initiate a comprehensive interview process.
“We’re committed to investing time and careful consideration into this appointment, to ensure we identify the right person for the job,” said MFAA Chairman Cynthia Grisbrook.
“The timing of this appointment does not affect the solid relationship that the MFAA has with ASIC, particularly with relation to the broker remuneration review. Brokers can be assured that a close involvement with ASIC as part of this review remains a top priority for the MFAA.”
