Aldermore Group – why we exist
Let Us Tell You a Bit About Us
We’re Aldermore – the award-winning bank, trusted by over a quarter of a million customers. With specialist mortgages, savings and business finance solutions, we’re backing more people to go for it.
We champion entrepreneurial spirit, support first-time buyers, open up the lending market, and power thousands of vehicle purchases through MotoNovo Finance every week.
This is where you come in. We’re on a journey to deliver on our purpose — backing more people to go for it, in life and business.
Let Us Tell You a Bit About The Opportunity
We’re looking for a Business Development Manager to help grow our Asset Based Lending (ABL) offering, working with businesses across the UK who need flexible working capital solutions. This is an exciting role right at the heart of driving growth in the SME market.
You won’t just be managing accounts — you’ll be originating and shaping complex, high-value ABL transactions (£0.5m–£50m), building long-term introducer partnerships, and representing Aldermore in a competitive marketplace. With real autonomy in a field-based role and exposure to senior stakeholders, this is a fantastic opportunity to make a visible impact in a specialist lending environment.
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.

You’ll be:
- Originating new ABL opportunities and delivering new business volumes in line with our growth plans.
- Building and maintaining high-quality relationships with introducers including corporate finance advisers, accountants, brokers and other professionals.
- Managing the full sales process end-to-end, from initial enquiry through to onboarding.
- Preparing clear, accurate credit submissions to support efficient underwriting and approvals.
- Staying close to the ABL market — understanding competitor offerings, pricing, trends and risks.
- Working collaboratively with teams across Risk, Operations and Relationship Management to ensure great customer and introducer experiences.
- Upholding conduct standards, TCF requirements and FCA expectations relevant to the role.
What do we expect from you?
We’re looking for someone who can bring:
- A proven track record in originating ABL transactions within the £0.5m–£50m range.
- An established network of introducers across corporate finance, accounting and broker communities.
- Strong understanding of ABL structures (receivables, inventory, plant & machinery, property).
