    Hi, I'm Jacqui. I joined Vida in August 2017 as an Underwriter, having previously worked at various other lenders in Underwriter positions. I became a Senior Underwriter in August 2019 and worked within the Technical Team, looking at more complex cases and supporting with training and development of new and existing underwriters. I joined the V-Hub as the Manager in March 2023 and have seen the team grow from the launch of the V-Hub to what it is today. I’m excited to now move into a new role, supporting our Premier Hub partners as the Team Manager.

    Hi, I'm Patsy. I joined Vida in 2017 as a Mortgage Lending Administrator and soon after, joined the TBDM team. In December 2022 the V-Hub was formed and I became an Intermediary Engagement Specialist, helping brokers with criteria queries, case updates and registrations. Prior to my time at Vida, I was a travel agent! I can’t wait for the Premier Hub to get started so we can provide that additional support and service to our intermediary partners.

    Hi, I’m Kiya, a Premier Hub Specialist with five years of experience in the mortgage sector. I’ve been with Vida Bank for nearly 2 years, where I support brokers with everything from criteria-related queries to system issues. I am passionate about making the mortgage process as smooth as possible and pride myself on offering clear, helpful guidance every step of the way.

    Hi, my name is Jaspal. I have worked for Vida for the past 9 years. I have extensive knowledge of the internal systems and criteria. I take pride in providing exceptional service to all intermediaries.
