After a chance meeting with Sarah when she was 8 months pregnant and hearing about The Mortgage Mum, Jemma knew even then that the concept of being able to maintain a meaningful career whilst getting to spend as much time as possible with her daughter during those early years was a rare one.

Therefore, whilst on maternity leave she decided to leave behind a successful career in Project Management and began studying for her CeMAP qualification whilst juggling a new born

“The change was scary, but the balance that working for The Mortgage Mum offers is completely worth it, and I’m so pleased I was brave enough to do it! The support from the other ‘Mums’ during the training period and now working as a fully-fledged broker is wonderful – I’ve never met some of these women as we’re based all over the country, but you’re constantly supported throughout.”

When not chasing after a toddler, Jemma likes to get an early workout in first thing and loves nothing more than making home improvements….an on-going battle with her other half!
