A fast-growing UK lender is building a specialist cashflow and leverage lending team and is looking for a senior originator to help shape and scale the proposition.
This is a rare opportunity to join at the start of a new lending platform focused on providing £1m–£10m cashflow-led and leveraged finance solutions to established, profitable UK SMEs that are often underserved by traditional lenders due to limited tangible security.
This is a fully remote-based role, and applications are welcomed from experienced lending professionals located anywhere across the UK. Your market will be shaped around your existing relationships, sector expertise, and ability to originate high-quality opportunities.
You’ll have the autonomy to build your own market, leverage your network, and originate meaningful transactions with the backing of experienced credit, risk, and product teams.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The Opportunity
You’ll be responsible for driving origination, helping shape the lending proposition, and bringing forward opportunities where a cashflow-based approach can unlock growth for ambitious businesses.
The focus is simple: source, structure, and close high-quality lending transactions.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Originate and execute £1m–£10m cashflow and leverage lending transactions
- Build relationships across the SME, intermediary, and corporate finance ecosystem
- Identify businesses with strong fundamentals and compelling funding needs
- Structure tailored lending solutions alongside credit and risk teams
- Manage opportunities from origination through to completion
- Help shape the growth and direction of the lending platform
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience in SME cashflow lending, leveraged lending, or direct lending origination
- A strong track record of sourcing and closing £1m+ transactions
- An established network of introducers, advisors, and business owners
- Strong understanding of cashflow-based credit assessment and structuring
- Commercial, entrepreneurial, and relationship-led approach

Why This Role Stands Out
- Fully remote role, open to candidates anywhere in the UK
- Build and own your market from day one
- Join a high-growth lending platform at a pivotal stage
- Real influence over product strategy and market approach
- Work with strong credit and risk support behind you
- Competitive package with performance upside
If you’re an originator who knows how to find opportunities, structure deals, and turn relationships into funded transactions, this is the opportunity to help build something significant.
