Regional Account Manager

About Lendable

Lendable is on a mission to build the world's best technology to help people get credit and save money. 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 700 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)

So far, 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 trillions worth of financial products are held by big banks with dated systems and painful processes.

Join us if you want to

1. 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

2. Work in small teams of exceptional people, who are relentlessly resourceful to solve problems and find smarter solutions than the status quo

3. 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 are one of the fastest growing auto finance companies in the UK - we currently operate in broker channels as well as key dealer accounts, and are now looking for top quality Regional Managers to help us grow our product in the independent dealer network.

We are seeking a highly motivated and commercially driven Regional Account Manager to lead new business acquisition across an assigned territory within the motor finance sector.

This is a role focused on building and managing a presence in dealerships - approximately 70% of the role’s focus will be dedicated to winning new dealer relationships and generating new business opportunities, and 30% focused on managing and developing existing accounts.

The successful candidate will play a key role in expanding market presence, increasing dealer partnerships, and driving finance volumes in a compliant and sustainable way through proactive business development activity and account management. Volumes delivered must be consistent with the FCA's Consumer Duty, fair value, and good customer outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

New Business Development (70%)

• Identify, target, and acquire new franchised and independent motor dealer partnerships across the region

• Build and maintain a strong pipeline of prospective dealer accounts

• Conduct regular field visits, networking activity, and outbound prospecting to generate new opportunities

• Deliver compelling presentations and commercial proposals to dealer principals and senior stakeholders

• Negotiate commercial terms and onboard new dealer partners effectively

• Support introducer due diligence on prospective dealers — FCA permissions, SAF Approved status, financial standing, complaints history and governance — and decline opportunities that don't meet our standards

• Grow finance penetration through quality applications and well-matched customer outcomes within newly acquired accounts

• Monitor market trends, competitor activity, and regional opportunities to maximise growth
