Business Development Executive/Partner
With close to 25 years of experience in financial services, Eric brings a wealth of knowledge across residential and commercial lending, asset finance, and insurance. Before joining Ironbark Group, he spent more than 24 years as a Relationship Manager with Commonwealth Bank of Australia, followed by a role as a Mortgage Executive with National Australia Bank.
As Business Development Executive heading up Ironbark Group’s Melbourne office, Eric focuses on building strong, lasting relationships with clients and referral partners. He takes a relationship-first approach, taking the time to understand each client’s financial position, goals and circumstances before working collaboratively to identify the right lending solution and pathway forward.
Eric’s experience spans home and investment lending, commercial property and business finance, asset and equipment finance, as well as business and general insurance. He is also a regular at industry events and networking opportunities, where he enjoys building connections, staying close to the market and helping more clients access the right support when they need it.
What Eric enjoys most about being part of Ironbark is the people. He is inspired by the team’s genuine passion for improving their clients’ financial well-being and values being surrounded by people who care about the outcomes they deliver.
Away from work, Eric is happiest staying active, whether he’s at the gym, boxing or getting out on the road in his 4WD. He has a passion for travelling and exploring some of Australia’s more remote and rugged corners, meeting new people and discovering places well off the beaten track. His faith is also an important part of his life, guiding his approach to helping others and doing good without expecting anything in return.
