About Elect Capital
Elect Capital is changing how SMEs access funding. We provide fast, flexible working capital loans, business loans, and merchant cash advances — no red tape, no slow decisions. Live across the UK, Australia, Canada, and the US, and scaling fast, we give SMEs the speed and flexibility traditional lenders can't.
🎯 Our Mission
We exist to give SMEs the capital and confidence to grow — fast, fair, and friction-free. Every ambitious business deserves a real shot at growth, not months of paperwork. We've built lending for speed, without cutting corners on fairness. When SMEs win, we win.
The Role
This role takes full ownership of Elect's broker and partner network, acting as the escalation point for deal sign-off, negotiations, and fast decisions, while line-managing and growing a team of Partnerships Executives and setting the strategy and targets for the function.
