Propel Finance was established in 1996 to provide flexible and accessible finance to SMEs across the country. Now, more than 20 years on, Propel has grown to become one of the UK’s largest, independent finance houses. We have continued to deliver leading-edge finance solutions through a unique combination of teamwork and technology.
From this continued success we are now looking to recruit a Partnership Manager to allow us to continue our exciting growth plans.
Our aim is to take the service we offer to the next level, to push the boundaries of what’s available, and to create great customer experiences consistent with our values. Does that sound like something you’d like to be part of?
As a Partnership Manager, you will play a crucial role in the continued development of our relationship with our partner, and their Business Banking customers, as their go-to Asset Finance provider. This is a strategic partnership, and your role will be to work hand in glove with our partner and their Relationship Managers to drive Asset Finance referrals. You may be educating teams on asset finance products, you may be networking at events, you may be reviewing their customer portfolios to identify sales opportunities – all with the aim to driving asset finance introductions. These introductions are then managed through to paid completion by our field sales team. It’s a varied role, and it comes with pace, and a huge opportunity.
