About this role
Are you commercially sharp, eager to learn, and looking to break into the world of property finance?
We're looking for a motivated, ambitious junior to train in the art of business development, relationship management, and deal execution within the unregulated bridging and development finance market. No prior industry experience is required — just a genuine interest in finance, a strong work ethic, and a willingness to learn.
This role is designed as a springboard into a long-term career in specialist lending, with a clear route for internal progression and the support needed to grow into a senior position.
What You'll Be Doing
●Support senior originators with new loan enquiries, client onboarding, and ongoing relationship management
●Manage inbound sales leads, acting as a first point of contact for borrowers, brokers, and introducers
●Write credit reports for new loan applications across a wide range of deal types and sizes
●Assist with marketing activity — including both online and offline campaigns — with a particular focus on managing Onyx's social media channels and helping maintain affiliate relationships with key industry bodies
●Coordinate with internal teams, including underwriting, legal, and completions, to ensure smooth deal progression
●Maintain accurate client records, assist with due diligence, and help track live deal status
●Face to face networking, such as broker events, site visits, and client meetings to build your exposure to the full lifecycle of property lending
●Develop in-depth market knowledge in specialist finance, deal structuring, credit risk, and relationship development
●Build your own portfolio of lending clients over time, with ongoing mentoring and support from a senior sales manager
What we are looking for
●Someone who enjoys face-to-face interaction and is confident engaging with prospects, clients, and introducers in person
●Commercially minded, proactive, and highly organised
●A genuine interest in property, finance, and business development
●Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment and juggling multiple priorities
●Degree-level education is preferred but not essential
●Previous experience in sales, customer service, or financial services is a bonus — but not required
Why join us?
You'll receive hands-on training and exposure across the entire lending process — from enquiry to completion. You'll work directly with a senior manager who will coach you in origination, credit writing, and relationship management.
This is a fast-track opportunity into a high-growth career in property finance.
The role offers a competitive basic salary, complemented by a performance-based bonus and commission structure tied to successful deal activity. You'll also receive access to a range of additional benefits, including training, mentoring, industry events, and career development opportunities.
