The role
We are looking to hire a Marketing Manager to own and run our Broker channel of the business, which is our largest channel within our Introducer business.
Who are we? Our mission is to build the place where small businesses get the funding they need to win.
We do this by uniting cutting-edge data and technology to deliver an unbeatable customer experience. With a decade of expertise under our belt, we've built a game-changer of a platform that's reshaping the landscape of SME lending. Say goodbye to lengthy applications and hello to lightning-fast decisions! In just minutes, SMEs across the UK can get an instant decision, giving them access to affordable funding in a flash.
99% of businesses are small businesses! And in most cases aren't given the finance they need to grow. We're here to change that because the world needs small business.
