A fast-growing, FCA-regulated lender specialising in Sharia-compliant finance is expanding its Mortgage Advisory team. With a strong market presence and ambitious growth plans, the business is hiring experienced advisors to support increasing customer demand across the UK.

This role sits at the centre of the customer journey, combining regulated mortgage advice with relationship-led conversations around faith-based finance.

• Good understanding of Islam to credibly discuss Sharia compliance with customers
• Ability to understand Arabic, Bengali, Urdu or Somali (fluency not essential)

Previous Islamic finance experience is not required - full product training will be provided.

What's Important
Customers often ask detailed questions about how Sharia-compliant finance differs from conventional mortgages. You don't need prior specialist experience, but you must be comfortable discussing the religious and ethical principles behind the product with credibility.
