Supporting every step of your private credit recruitment journey
Australia has become a strong and active market for private credit across the Asia Pacific region. The country combines established banks with a fast growing group of non bank lenders and alternative credit platforms. Selby Jennings works within this environment, giving us access to talent that understands Australian regulation, local credit behaviour, and cross border deal flow. This makes Australia a practical location for firms that need people who work with accuracy and handle complex lending tasks.
Diverse pool of private credit talent
Australia attracts professionals with experience in private credit, direct lending, and debt across domestic and international markets. Many candidates have worked on non bank investments and regional transactions, giving them a wider view of structured lending and risk. This variety helps us introduce people who meet technical requirements and fit naturally with your organisation.
Specialised knowledge in private credit lending
Private credit in Australia calls for a clear understanding of small and medium businesses, direct lending structures, local regulation, and risk frameworks. We work with candidates who can complete detailed assessments, structure deals suited to Australian and regional markets, and manage portfolios with discipline. You gain access to individuals who add practical capability and informed thinking from day one.
Personalised private credit recruitment
We shape each search around your hiring goals. Our work spans direct lending, mezzanine financing, distressed debt, and structured credit. We consider cultural fit, long-term value, and the operational needs of teams working in Australia. This approach helps you build stable groups that can grow and adapt as the market shifts.
Long-term partnerships
Our involvement continues after the hire. We offer insight on compensation trends, diversity planning, and changes in the Australian credit market. As your organisation develops, we stay engaged, helping you add capability, identify future leaders, and respond to new talent needs. This steady partnership strengthens your ability to build and maintain strong private credit teams in Australia.
