Partnerships Lead
London, UK | Reporting to: Global Head of Partnerships
About Elect Capital
Elect Capital is changing how SMEs access funding. We provide fast, flexible working capital loans, business loans, and merchant cash advances — no red tape, no slow decisions. Live across the UK, Australia, Canada, and the US, and scaling fast, we give SMEs the speed and flexibility traditional lenders can't.
Our Mission
We exist to give SMEs the capital and confidence to grow — fast, fair, and friction-free. Every ambitious business deserves a real shot at growth, not months of paperwork. We've built lending for speed, without cutting corners on fairness. When SMEs win, we win.
The Role
This role takes full ownership of Elect's broker and partner network, acting as the escalation point for deal sign-off, negotiations, and fast decisions, while line-managing and growing a team of Partnerships Executives and setting the strategy and targets for the function.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the broker and partner relationship function end-to-end, acting as the ultimate point of contact for complex queries, escalations and edge cases
- Provide sign-off and steer on deals and negotiations, drawing on strong commercial and sector knowledge to make fast, sound calls
- Line-manage a team of Partnerships Executives, providing day-to-day support, coaching and clear direction
- Own broker/partner strategy and targets, and report on performance to senior leadership
- Maintain a small number of your own key broker relationships, alongside leading the wider function
- Work cross-functionally with underwriting, sales and operations to ensure smooth, efficient deal flow
- Continuously improve processes for onboarding, education and ongoing engagement of brokers
What We're Looking For
- Strong background in broker/introducer relationship management, ideally within SME lending, fintech or a related financial services environment
- Sharp commercial judgment and the ability to make quick, confident decisions on deals and negotiations
- Comfortable being the escalation point for a busy, fast-moving team
- A track record of building trusted relationships and spotting commercial opportunities
- High ownership, low ego, fast execution
Bonus
- People management experience — though we're just as open to a strong individual contributor ready to step up into their first leadership role
Our Offer
- Industry leading commission scheme
- 25 days annual leave (plus bank holidays)
- Private health insurance with AXA
- Income protection
- Life assurance
- Statutory pension
- Fully stocked snacks, drinks, and coffee machine
- Monday lunch on us!
