Head of Broker (Build & Lead a New Division) – London / Hybrid

A fast-growing UK alternative business lender is hiring a Head of Broker to build and scale a brand-new brokerage function.

This is a rare opportunity to take ownership of a high-potential revenue channel, working with strong inbound deal flow and backing from an established lending platform.

The Role

You’ll be responsible for launching and leading a brokerage division that places deals outside of the company’s core lending criteria.

• Build and scale a brokerage team (target 10–15+ brokers)
• Place deals with a network of alternative and specialist lenders
• Develop and manage key funding relationships
• Design and implement deal placement strategies
• Work closely with internal sales teams to capture “overflow” opportunities

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience as a commercial finance broker or similar
• Strong lender network across the UK alternative finance space
• Track record of placing complex or non-standard deals
• Entrepreneurial mindset with a desire to build something from the ground up
• Leadership experience or clear potential to scale a team

Package

• £100k–£150k base (depending on experience)
• Lucrative bonus / commission structure
• LTIP potential from day one

Location

• London preferred (hybrid working)
• Open to strong candidates in the North West

Why This Role?

• Immediate access to warm, high-volume deal flow
• Backing from an established, well-funded lender
• Opportunity to build and own a new business unit
• Significant long-term upside
