About the Company
A private, principal-led, investment office based in Central London, acting as the strategic and operational centre for a group of businesses in alternative lending (MCA) and property.
With a team of three full time employees - this is a small, entrepreneurial business and, as such, applicants must be comfortable working in a lean, unstructured but fast paced environment
The office functions as a centralised hub for finance, capital allocation, and decision-making, with direct oversight of multiple operating platforms. The group’s activities include UK and international lending platforms and a substantial property investment portfolio, spanning residential and commercial assets across multiple geographies.
You will work closely with the owner and Principal so the role offers rare exposure to real-time investment and credit decision-making. For the right individual, it provides accelerated responsibility, breadth of experience across asset classes, and close interaction with senior leadership in a dynamic and entrepreneurial setting.

The role offers broad exposure across underwriting, analysis, origination, execution, and ongoing portfolio oversight - with meaningful involvement in live decision-making.
