He told<em>&nbsp;MPA<\/em>&nbsp;about his appointment as manager of business analytics and operations and why he looks forward to the year ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting his finance career as a bank officer for CBA back in 1995, Murphy has since gone on to fill a number of diverse roles within the lending space. Working in management roles for the likes of Bluestone, Community First Credit Union and RAMs, he most recently worked for Pepper as senior customer service operations manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of his appointment with Brighten, Murphy said his core responsibilities will be to manage the business-as-usual processes of the non-bank while examining ways to add efficiencies in order to further its strong growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI will also help support Brighten\u2019s broad range of activities, from projects to managing our Client Services Centre,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said 25 years\u2019 experience across diverse roles from credit to customer service enable him to bring a wide range of skills and experience to the role.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am motivated by innovation, improvement and the vision of reshaping non-bank lending,\u201d he said. \u201cI hope to continue Brighten\u2019s drive to always progress and maintain a culture that encourages Brighten\u2019s teams to perform at an excellent level.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked what most excited him about working for Brighten, Murphy said the non-bank\u2019s appeal had grown since he started in the role three months ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI initially loved that I was joining a firm with a lofty vision to reshape non-bank lending with diverse and resilient funding, and huge potential,\u201d he said. \u201cBut I\u2019ve found Brighten is a business with a significant depth of experience, a massive growth rate and people dedicating themselves to building something great &#8211; and that excites me even more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am looking forward to the opportunities that are ahead of us this year.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following a career of more than 25 years in the finance industry, non-bank veteran Stephen Murphy recently joined the rapidly growing
