Getting to know Kristijan Sintic, Business Development Specialist.

What was your first job?
My first job was a service station attendant for BP. 

What is your favourite way to unwind after a busy day?
Wine is always the answer here! White for summer and red for winter.

What would we most likely find you doing on the weekend?
I like to go aimlessly driving (particularly through hills and winery territory). There is so much in our own backyard, and it’s amazing what you stumble upon when you have no purpose.

What is the life motto/philosophy that you live by?
Early bird gets the worm. I believe that to be successful you must start planning early; if you’re chasing your tail the entire day then you’ll never get anything completed! 

What is your favourite sport to watch, and which team do you support?
I absolutely love the NBA, and my team is the Los Angeles Lakers. 

What is one professional skill you are currently working on?
I am always working on my communication – both written and verbal. In my role it is essential that there are no breakdowns or misunderstandings in communication with brokers.

Tell us a bit about your role
As a Business Development Specialist, I am the main point of contact for brokers who are looking to work with HomeStart. The role covers everything related to assisting brokers, from scenario support to helping obtain pre-approval.

How long have you been with HomeStart and what is it that you love about working here?
I have been at HomeStart for just over 7 months. The thing I love the most is our aim to make home ownership a reality for more people. It’s incredibly rewarding to be part of an environment where we can provide such a positive change to the lives of our customers.
