We're DF Capital
A specialist bank providing award-winning commercial finance, retail finance, and savings products to consumers and small businesses.
Based in Manchester, we serve thousands of customers across the UK and into Europe, supporting their ambitions with tailored financial solutions.
We help our customers realise their ambitions by doing things differently - combining the agility and innovation of a specialist lender with the security and service standards of a regulated bank. Whether it's flexible lending structures or straightforward savings options, we focus on what matters most to our customers.
In 2025, we launched DF Capital Retail Finance - a subsidiary of DF Capital Bank Limited - to offer specialist hire purchase solutions to retail customers.
Our goal is simple: to do the absolute best for our customers, our communities, and each other.
Your new role:
As a member of the Structured Finance team, you will play a key role in servicing a portfolio of clients by offering class-leading customer service which support our customers and enable them to meet and exceed their business ambitions. Reporting to a Relationship Manager you will be responsible for servicing and managing relationships with Structured Finance customers including products such as Stock Flow Finance, Invoice Finance, Wholesale Finance and Short-Term Secured Business Loans.
DFC's Structured Finance solutions are designed not only to meet customers' working capital needs but are also perfect for financing customer opportunities such as mergers and acquisitions, business restructures and asset purchases.
You will be a proven builder and developer of relationships with both customers and internal stakeholders. You will be a self-starter, have enthusiasm and a can-do attitude to build trust with, and provide the right outcomes for, customers. You'll build depth of knowledge in our lending products, help prospects, existing customers and external stakeholders understand the benefits that working with DF Capital brings.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
