BDM - Bridging Finance
New Today
The Role
You don't just fill a pipeline you own it. Our client is recruiting two experienced Business Development Managers to lead deal flow for a fast-growing bridging lender. This isn't admin-heavy or hand-holding; it's pure deal-making. You identify the opportunity, build the relationship, close the deal, and bank the commission. Rinse and repeat. If you've got the relationships, the hunger, and a track record of closing £1m+ bridging deals, this is your seat."
What You'll Do:
• Build and nurture a pipeline of bridging finance opportunities (target: 1–2 deals per month)
• Identify and approach property developers, investors, estate agents, and finance brokers
• Qualify opportunities, manage deal flow, and progress cases through underwriting to completion
• Present products and competitive rates to prospects • Manage relationships post-completion through redemption
• Maintain accurate CRM data and weekly reporting
• Attend property industry events and networking to build market presence
Your Numbers:
• Commission: 0.1% on completion (£1,000 per £1m) + 0.05% on redemption (£500 per £1m) = £1,500 per £1m full cycle
• Base salary: £75,000–£85,000 (based on experience and track record)
• Commission paid quarterly on completion, additional revenue on redemption
Essential Experience
You must have proven BDM experience in bridging finance, development finance, or a closely related sector. This is non-negotiable. We're looking for someone with:
• Minimum 2+ years in bridging, development finance, or commercial lending business development • Demonstrated track record of consistent deal sourcing and closing (able to evidence deals closed, values, timelines)
• Direct relationships within the property developer, investor, and broker communities
• Understanding of bridging loan products, terms, rates, and underwriting criteria
• Experience working to £1m+ deal values
• Ability to work independently and self-manage a pipeline
• Strong CRM discipline and reporting
