Graduate Analyst role at Lendable
Lendable is on a mission to make consumer finance amazing: faster, cheaper, and friendlier. We’re building one of the world’s leading fintech companies and are off to a strong start:
* One of the UK’s newest unicorns with a team of just over 600 people
* Among the fastest‑growing tech companies in the UK
* Profitable since 2017
* Backed by top investors including Balderton Capital and Goldman Sachs
* Loved by customers with the best reviews in the market (4.9 across 10,000s of reviews on Trustpilot)
We’ve rebuilt the Big Three consumer finance products from scratch: loans, credit cards and car finance. We get money into our customers’ hands in minutes instead of days.
We’re growing fast, and there’s a lot more to do: we’re going after the two biggest Western markets (UK and US) where trillion‑worth financial products are held by big banks with dated systems and painful processes.
Join us if you want to
* Take ownership across a broad remit. You are trusted to make decisions that drive a material impact on the direction and success of Lendable from day 1.
* Work in small teams of exceptional people, who are relentlessly resourceful to solve problems and find smarter solutions than the status quo.
* Build the best technology in-house, using new data sources, machine learning and AI to make machines do the heavy lifting.
About the role
We’re looking for a super‑smart graduate who is great with numbers and loves problem‑solving to come and apply your skills in a start‑up environment and have a big impact on our business and how we do things.
What you'll be doing
* Use your analytical and problem‑solving skills to generate key insights from data and use that insight to drive meaningful change in our strategy.
* Using data and modelling to ground assumptions for our NPV model, such as predicting what default rates will be in the future, and using that to inform our lending decisions.
* Using data and analytics to drive decisions about who we should lend to, how much we should lend to them, and how that changes with the economy and competition.
* Conduct hypothesis testing, and using your findings to change how we do things in areas such as lending strategy, pricing, and fraud detection.
* Present your findings to senior leaders in the company, then work with the product/tech team to get them implemented.
What we're looking for
* A graduate with a degree.
* Someone that loves numbers – you’ll be working with numbers every day in this role, so you’ll be able to demonstrate your ability to work with complex data sets, analyse them and draw insights.
* You’ll have a natural curiosity and love to dig into things to understand how they work.
* Startup mindset. We’re a fast‑growth tech startup so you’ll be super excited to work in an entrepreneurial environment and have a real impact on the business.

* Best‑in‑class compensation, including equity.
* You can work from home every Monday and Friday if you wish – on the other days, those based in the UK come together IRL at our Shoreditch office in London to be together, build and exchange ideas.
* Enjoy a fully stocked kitchen with everything you need to whip up breakfast, lunch, snacks, and drinks in the office every Tuesday‑Thursday.
* We care for your well‑being both physically and mentally, so we offer coverage for private health insurance.
