With a passion for sharing knowledge, continual growth and an innate sense of curiosity, Jacob Manishevitz grew up wanting to be an educator.  His plan was to attend teacher’s college after completing his university degree, but when the corporate world came calling, he made a life-changing career leap that would see him migrate to the financial industry.  We’re very fortunate that Jacob’s career path led him to Outline Financial where he currently works as a Mortgage Broker.

So how did it all begin?  After graduating from the University of Toronto with a Bachelor’s degree in history and political science, Jacob was offered a role in corporate sales where he regularly interacted with C-suite executives across numerous companies.  Being relatively young for the senior level role, Jacob quickly honed his communication skills and developed a knack for active listening that continues to serve him well.

While Jacob enjoyed business-to-business sales, his passion for educating and connecting directly with the end user, sparked his interest in business-to-consumer career opportunities.  As fate would have it, a timely meeting with a C-Suite executive with deep banking experience suggested Jacob explore the mortgage industry.

After researching potential opportunities, Jacob was sold.  Leveraging his experience in sales and customer service, Jacob quickly fell in love with the industry, meeting new people and learning about their goals for financial success. He also enjoyed educating his clients about their mortgage options and helping them understand the various products and solutions available.  Jacob would go on to earn his mortgage broker’s qualification/licence and the rest, as they say, is history.

We’re also more diversified and specialized than most mortgage brokerages. We stick up for each other and our clients in a way that I haven’t seen at any other brokerage.”
