Why work at HomeStart?

Hear what our employees have to say about working at HomeStart.
"I have worked for companies in the past that have said they are all about the people, when in reality it was all about the bottom line. This is not the case at HomeStart, they really care about their employees and customers. In the recent bush fire tragedy, HomeStart called all of the affected customers individually to see if they could help. Inspirational stuff, it’s a good feeling to be a part of that kind of culture."
Mick Gardiner, Applications Developer (HomeStart employee since January 2020)
"My time at HomeStart has been a truly rewarding experience and I have really enjoyed working within a company who is genuinely committed to helping as many South Australians into home ownership as possible. I have now secured a great role working as a Home Loan Banking Advisor for one of the big four banks because of the skills I learned while at HomeStart."
Faris Abdel-Hamid, Lending Consultant (HomeStart Graduate Program 2016-2018)
"HomeStart Finance is a great place to work for multiple reasons, whether it be the physical environment, or the culture where employees are supported with growth and learning. A company on the move with modern systems accompanied by the unique mortgage products on offer to HomeStart’s customers which enables home ownership for property purchasers throughout South Australia."
Trent Godfrey, Property Officer (HomeStart employee since April 2017)
"Working at HomeStart not only gives opportunities for growth, development and learning, but equally HomeStart really cares about its staff and allows the time for work life balance when needed. You cannot put a price on that flexibility."
Elizabeth James, Business Development Manager (HomeStart employee since March 2003)
"My job at HomeStart is not just about answering phones and processing paper work, it’s about the conversations I share with customers and the home ownership journeys I am taken along on. HomeStart allows me to have a positive impact on people’s lives as I get to assist and help customers into homeownership."
Belinda Tonkin, Senior Lending Consultant (HomeStart employee since June 2007)
