Capital Markets Analyst / Associate

ABOUT LENDABLE

Lendable is on a mission to build the world's best technology to help people get credit and save money. We're building one of the world’s leading fintech companies and are off to a strong start:

• One of the UK’s newest unicorns with a team of just over 700 people

• Among the fastest-growing tech companies in the UK

• Profitable since 2017

• Backed by top investors including Balderton Capital and Goldman Sachs

• Loved by customers with the best reviews in the market (4.9 across 10,000s of reviews on Trustpilot https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/lendable.co.uk)

So far, we’ve rebuilt the Big Three consumer finance products from scratch: loans, credit cards and car finance. We get money into our customers’ hands in minutes instead of days.

We’re growing fast, and there’s a lot more to do: we’re going after the two biggest Western markets (UK and US) where trillions worth of financial products are held by big banks with dated systems and painful processes.

JOIN US IF YOU WANT TO

1. Take ownership across a broad remit. You are trusted to make decisions that drive a material impact on the direction and success of Lendable from day 1

2. Work in small teams of exceptional people, who are relentlessly resourceful to solve problems and find smarter solutions than the status quo

3. Build the best technology in-house, using new data sources, machine learning and AI to make machines do the heavy lifting

What you'll do

• Assist in developing Lendable's capital markets strategy to fund over £2.5bn per annum in 2026.

• Manage strategic funding projects on tight timeframes through to execution

• Originate and execute new transactions (including direct lending through forward flow agreements, private and public asset-backed financing arrangements, and new fund launches).

• Manage investor relationships (including banks, investment banks, asset managers, hedge funds, insurance companies, pension funds, high net worth investors and family offices).

• Arrange and run due diligence sessions for new investors.

• Assist in the running of the Lendable funds.

• Assist in the development of funding strategies for new product launches.

• Support senior management and founders on the assessment of strategic initiatives and corporate development projects.

• For Associates: 3-4 years of relevant experience in the industry

• Strong analytical and numerical skills that put you at ease with financial data

• Great written and verbal communication skills with a close attention to detail

• Technical Aptitude: High level of proficiency in Excel and financial modelling as well as knowledge of SQL to query and manage large-scale data

• Proactivity & Learning: Be a self-driven problem-solver with a deep willingness to learn new financial structures and speak to individuals across the business to help problem solve, in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment
