Our very own Matt Derham and Glenn Atkinson, from the pmwFinance team have been featured in The Adviser (Australia’s leading mortgage and finance broking publication), and on TAFE NSW’s website for their experience with the new NSW Government’s fee-free traineeships.

Here’s a brief excerpt from both articles:

NSW-based brokerage pmwFinance – a division of accounting, business and financial advisory firm pmwPlus – has leveraged the state government’s commitment to provide fee-free traineeships to up to 70,000 businesses, by recruiting support to manage an influx in credit enquiries off the back of the COVID-19 crisis.

The brokerage has recruited Glenn Atkinson, an experienced banker, who enrolled in the Certificate IV in Finance and Mortgage Broking course at TAFE NSW.

“The course allowed Glenn to achieve the level of expertise we required in order to help our clients,” pmw Finance mortgage broker Matt Derham said.

“Since the outbreak of the pandemic, we’ve seen a steep increase in queries from clients concerned about the current climate and Glenn, thanks to the speed of which he was able to complete the course, has been able to diligently look after those clients.

“Glenn has been a great asset to our team, and the practical skills he’s picked up in his TAFE NSW course along with his knowledge of the industry is shining through in his work.”  

Mr Atkinson, who has worked in the banking sector for eight years, said he capitalised on the NSW government’s initiative to upskill and pursue his passion for property.
