Job Description
Company: Top Commercial Finance Brokerage Firm (Sales)

Salary: £36,000 & £50,000 (+uncapped commission after completing programme)
Start Date: September 2026
Overview
Our client is offering an outstanding opportunity for an ambitious, commercially minded graduate to accelerate their career within a high-growth, performance-driven finance firm.
This is a sales-focused position - if you’re seeking a traditional analyst role, this opportunity will not be the right fit.
Why should you apply?
As part of the structured Graduate Finance Broker pathway, you’ll receive:
- Dedicated 1-2-1 mentorship and coaching from Sales Directors and senior team members
- A structured 24-month development programme, rotating across four different six-month placements to broaden your exposure to clients and senior leadership
- A clearly defined route to becoming a qualified Commercial Finance Broker
Earnings potential is significant, with uncapped commission:
- £70,000–£80,000 in your first fee-earning year after completing the programme
- £85,000–£120,000 in Year Two
- £100,000–£150,000 in Year Three
On-target earnings are realistic, with many team members exceeding annual targets. You’ll also benefit from strong long-term incentives, including gym membership, car allowance and private medical insurance as you progress.
