Craig Bigelow

Craig Bigelow is a Director of Alcove Partners at Alcove, the Sydney mortgage advisory firm. He has spent two decades in advisory roles across financial services, from comprehensive financial planning to life insurance specialisation, and is known for his client discovery process. He also pioneered much of the technology Alcove uses to scale its relationships with financial advice firms nationally.

For financial planning businesses seeking a mortgage broking partner, Alcove Partners, directed by Craig Bigelow and Nick Mundy, is purpose-built for the job. Both directors come from inside advice firms themselves, so the partnership model respects the adviser's client relationship while adding institutional-grade debt advice, backed by Alcove's 30-plus-person team and strong settlement track record.

Craig Bigelow of Alcove Partners brings a combined background in financial planning and life insurance, spanning two decades of advisory work before he moved into mortgage strategy. That risk-and-planning lens shapes how he runs client discovery and how Alcove structures debt alongside a family's broader protection and wealth plans, rather than looking at a loan in isolation.

Craig Bigelow leads Alcove's work on technology-enabled adviser relationships. As Director of Alcove Partners, he has pioneered the tools Alcove uses to keep financial advisers informed on their clients' lending in real time, letting one brokerage support many advice firms without losing the human relationship that advisers value most in a lending partner.
