About Allica Bank
Allica is the UK’s fastest growing company - and the fastest-growing financial technology (Fintech) firm ever. Our purpose is to help established SMEs, one of the last major underserved opportunities in Fintech.
Established SMEs are the backbone of local communities - representing over a third of our economy - yet have been largely neglected both by traditional high street banks and modern fintech providers.
Purpose of Role
We’re looking for a In-life Lending Manager to join our Credit Monitoring Team (CMT). This role sits at the heart of our loan book, managing customer relationships post origination and ensuring strong credit oversight throughout the lifecycle.

- Managing in-life changes to lending facilities
- Monitoring credit risk and identifying early warning signs
- Supporting customers while protecting the bank’s position
- Driving process improvements as we continue to scale
This is a high impact role with real exposure across credit, operations, and relationship teams.

- Engage directly with customers to understand and assess requests
- Work closely with underwriting and relationship teams on credit decisions
- Ensure consistent processes and high-quality documentation
Credit Monitoring & Risk Management
- Review and triage Early Warning Indicator (EWI) alerts
- Identify emerging risks and take appropriate action
- Manage pre-watchlist accounts and support remediation strategies
