What You’ll Do as a Mortgage Adviser
Your core responsibilities include:
You will build your own portfolio while working within Trinity’s authorised systems, procedures and standards.
Earn Up to 80% on Direct Business
New self-employed advisers normally start at:
After your first full calendar quarter, your Direct rate is reviewed quarterly according to eligible mortgage, personally advised protection and general-insurance income banked during the previous quarter.
Introduced business remains payable at 40%, but eligible Introduced bankings also help determine your next Direct tier.
The 75% and 80% tiers are subject to Trinity’s Quality Gate, including satisfactory customer outcomes, file quality, Finova records, training, CPD, recording compliance and protection persistency.
How the Quarterly Commission Structure Works
Your Direct rate for each calendar quarter is determined by your Qualifying Tier Bankings received by Trinity during the previous calendar quarter:
The thresholds are measured across the whole calendar quarter. The approximate monthly equivalents are £2,500, £5,000, £10,000 and £15,000, but you do not need to bank the same amount in every month.
Eligible Direct and Introduced mortgage, personally advised protection and general-insurance bankings count towards the tier. Client broker fees, conveyancing income, survey referral income, monthly adviser charges and Case Administration Charges do not count.
How business is paid
The Protection Commission Base is the lower of 200% APE and the gross provider commission actually received and allocated by Trinity.
What You’ll Get as a Self-Employed Adviser
The £245 service charge covers the standard systems and infrastructure Trinity makes available, including CRM and case-management technology, approved AI-assisted functionality, sourcing, telephony, Microsoft 365, compliance systems and information-security tools.
This is a self-employed business opportunity. Trinity does not guarantee a salary, minimum income, minimum volume of leads or minimum level of business. Your actual earnings will depend on business volumes, Direct and Introduced mix, client fees, conversion, customer retention, quality and other factors. Tax, National Insurance, clawbacks, refunds, expenses and contractual deductions may apply.
Who This Is For
Residential advisers: confident advising first-time buyers, movers, remortgage clients and landlords.
Specialist advisers: experienced in—or keen to develop within—HMOs, MUFBs, bridging, development finance, second charges, semi-commercial and commercial lending.
Ambitious self-employed advisers: looking for transparent progression, established infrastructure and the opportunity to build a sustainable client bank within an FCA-authorised firm.
Next Steps
We are looking to speak with ambitious mortgage advisers who want to grow a residential practice, develop specialist expertise or move their existing client and introducer relationships to an established brokerage platform.
