About Us.
What we do.
BlackBriar was built on a simple belief - that private credit should feel personal.
We're a boutique private credit manager based in South Yarra, offering mortgage-secured investment opportunities to wholesale investors and bespoke lending solutions to Australian businesses, through their brokers and advisers. Every transaction is assessed on its own merits, every investor knows exactly where their capital is going, and every broker has a real person to call.
At BlackBriar, the same team that originates a loan assesses it, approves it, and manages it through to maturity - bringing faster decisions, genuine accountability, and a level of care that reflects how we think credit should work.
For wholesale investors, that means direct access to individual mortgage-secured opportunities with fixed-interest returns and full transparency. For brokers and advisers, it means a reliable lending partner for clients who need fast, flexible, property-secured capital solutions.
BlackBriar was built to bring a more thoughtful and disciplined approach to private credit. Grounded in strong relationships and a clear focus on doing things the right way.
Our Leadership.
Lilly brings over a decade of experience in the private credit market, having held senior leadership roles across lending, fund operations, investor relations, and played a pivotal role in scaling a business from its early stages into its evolution into a leading non-bank lender. She offers a wealth of knowledge in fund management, lending operations, and regulatory compliance and governance.
Nick draws on over 15 years of experience across financial services, investment operations, and high-trust environments to lead BlackBriar’s investor engagement and operational strategy. With a background in managing complex systems and client-facing teams, he focuses on making the investment process clear, secure, and dependable.
Simple. Boutique. Better.
Real Relationships
We work closely with everyone we deal with. Our team is hands-on, accessible, and genuinely invested in supporting good outcomes. We take pride in the relationships we build, and in being the kind of firm people come back to.
Speed Without Compromise
We understand that timing is often the difference between a transaction proceeding and falling over. Our process is built to move quickly, we can generally settle within a week of receiving a complete application, without cutting corners on rigour.
Transparency at Every Step
For investors, that means full visibility over each opportunity before committing capital. For brokers and their clients, it means fees quoted upfront, no surprises, and clear communication from first enquiry to settlement.
A Human Approach
We assess every transaction individually, on its own merits. No algorithm, no automated scoring, no one-size-fits-all criteria. Just experienced people applying considered judgement to each opportunity.
Funding structured around your timeline.
BlackBriar knows that waiting costs money. We handle the paperwork, run the numbers, and get capital moving while your opportunity is still fresh. That's the difference between a lender and a partner.
