DF Capital is a specialist bank providing award-winning commercial finance, retail finance, and savings products to consumers and small businesses. Based in Manchester, we serve thousands of customers across the UK and into Europe, supporting their ambitions with tailored financial solutions.
In 2025, we launched DF Capital Retail Finance to offer specialist hire purchase solutions to retail customers. Our goal is simple: to do the absolute best for our customers, our communities, and each other.
Your new role:
As a member of the Structured Finance team, you will play a key role in servicing a portfolio of clients by offering class-leading customer service which supports our customers and enables them to meet and exceed their business ambitions. Reporting to a Relationship Manager, you will be responsible for servicing and managing relationships with Structured Finance customers including products such as Stock Flow Finance, Invoice Finance, Wholesale Finance, and Short-Term Secured Business Loans.
You will be a proven builder and developer of relationships with both customers and internal stakeholders. You will be a self-starter, have enthusiasm, and a can-do attitude to build trust with, and provide the right outcomes for, customers. You will build depth of knowledge in our lending products, helping prospects, existing customers, and external stakeholders understand the benefits that working with DF Capital brings.
You will have an eye for opportunity and be eager to bring them to life alongside colleagues across the bank. You understand the value of teamwork and that collaboration can shape the bank’s success. You will be comfortable sharing your knowledge with colleagues to put our customers’ needs first.
You will be comfortable working with customers’ financial statements and forecasts to ensure that you can identify deteriorating trends or concerns and can concisely escalate your findings where appropriate, although further training will be provided. You will be equally comfortable working at pace, being a team player but also able to work autonomously. You will have strong communication, organisation, and facilitation skills, whilst being comfortable working with a variety of stakeholders at varying levels of an organisation.
You will be able to demonstrate a good understanding of the key components of commercial lending and what it takes to deliver great customer service and strong customer advocacy. Having a strong attention to detail, with proven ability to prioritise and excellent organisational skills are prerequisites.
