About Lendable

Lendable is on a mission to build the world's best technology to help people get credit and save money. We're building one of the world’s leading fintech companies and are off to a strong start:

• One of the UK’s newest unicorns with a team of just over 700 people

• Among the fastest-growing tech companies in the UK

• Profitable since 2017

• Backed by top investors including Balderton Capital and Goldman Sachs

• Loved by customers with the best reviews in the market (4.9 across 10,000s of reviews on Trustpilot)

So far, we’ve rebuilt the Big Three consumer finance products from scratch: loans, credit cards and car finance. We get money into our customers’ hands in minutes instead of days.

We’re growing fast, and there’s a lot more to do: we’re going after the two biggest Western markets (UK and US) where trillions worth of financial products are held by big banks with dated systems and painful processes.

Join us if you want to

1. Take ownership across a broad remit. You are trusted to make decisions that drive a material impact on the direction and success of Lendable from day 1

2. Work in small teams of exceptional people, who are relentlessly resourceful to solve problems and find smarter solutions than the status quo

3. Build the best technology in-house, using new data sources, machine learning and AI to make machines do the heavy lifting

You'll combine data analysis with external relationship management, take real ownership from early on, and work closely with Product, Data and Credit teams to deliver results in a fast-moving launch environment. You’ll be embedded within the growth team and will work closely with different teams at Lendable while being trusted to drive growth initiatives and handle your own projects independently.

Team objectives

• The team asks ‘where are new customers?’, ‘what can I improve with my current channels’ conversion?’, ‘what are competitors doing on marketplaces?’, ‘Am I risking negative selection?’, ‘what is the next product or innovation to develop?’, and ‘Are my unit economics working?’.

What you’ll be working on

• You will own the launch of Zable car insurance and mobile on price comparison websites - from initial partner conversations through to integration, go live and on-going optimisation

• You will manage partner relationships across strategic and day-to-day activity, balancing focus on large strategic partners with incubating new exciting ideas and holding partners accountable to delivery milestones.

• Prepare analysis to support commercial decisions: pulling the right data, forming a clear point of view, and presenting it in a way to keep moving forward

• You will be trusted to negotiate customer acquisition costs and commissions with key partners, identifying areas for cost optimisations.

• Work cross functionally with Product, Pricing, Data and Compliance to scope integrations, complete due diligence on new partners and drive projects forward

• Keep track of what’s happening in mobile and insurance partner markets - new entrants, product changes, competitor moves - and bring those insights to internal discussions

• The role progression includes gradually owning the full responsibility for strategy and execution of specific partner projects, marketing efforts or product enhancements that deliver business growth.

Your experience

• 2-3+ years’ experience in a commercial, consultancy, partnerships, analytical, business development, or account management role; ideally within financial services or a high-growth tech environment.

• Strong communicator able to represent Lendable externally and build trusted relationships internally and externally.

• Demonstrably uses AI tools to work better, whether that's automating repetitive tasks, speeding up analysis, improving written output, or finding faster routes to answers. We don't care which tools; we care that you've genuinely changed how you work because of them, not just experimented once or twice.

• Outcome-driven and proactive: skilled at prioritising, independently driving projects, and managing work to deliver high-value results.

• Comfortable contributing to a collaborative team, while thriving in a role where your individual performance and impact are directly visible.

What does success look like 6 months after joining?
