Jacob Santos
Head of Sales,
Home Lending
Meet Jacob Santos, who joined Podium Money as co-Director following our strategic merger with Direct Mortgages in August 2024. His 20-year finance industry journey began at ANZ as a Credit Analyst, where he spent six years before transitioning to mortgage broking in 2007 and founding Direct Mortgages. Under his leadership, the company established itself as a trusted name in finance, delivering tailored lending solutions ranging from first homebuyer mortgages to large-scale commercial developments.
Beyond his professional achievements, Jacob is a family man, happily married with two children. His commitment to integrity and reputation-building, combined with his focus on personalised financial solutions and enduring client relationships, makes him a perfect fit for our extensive referral network.
Outside of work, Jacob loves travelling with his family—whether it's discovering new cultures, finding hidden food gems, or attempting to convince everyone that he has the best itinerary planned (even if it's just a well-disguised food tour!).
