## Description

**Partnerships Team Lead**

📍 London, UK | Reporting to: Global Head of Sales | 3+ Days Office-Based

**About Us**

Elect Capital backs ambitious businesses across the UK, Canada, Australia and the US with fast, transparent funding. We deliver 1–9 month business financing with daily or weekly repayments, and 90% of completed applications receive an offer within 4 hours. Whether clients apply directly or through a broker, we make the funding journey sharp, clean and simple. We're not here to reinvent financing. We're here to do it better.

**Our Mission**

To back ambition — disrupting traditional finance and connecting businesses to capital that moves as fast as they do.

**Our Values: C.O.R.E**

-   Challenge — Ask the hard questions. Improve what you touch.
-   Opportunity — Spot it. Shape it. Run with it.
-   Resilience — Stay steady. Adapt fast. Keep momentum.
-   Edge — Think sharp. Move sharp. Stand out.

**The Role**

-   Take full ownership of Elect's broker and partner network, acting as the escalation point for deal sign-off, negotiations and fast decisions.
-   Line-manage and grow a team of Partnerships Executives
-   Set the strategy and targets for the partnerships function, and own the results.

**Key Responsibilities**

-   Own the broker and partner relationship function end-to-end, acting as the ultimate point of contact for complex queries, escalations and edge cases
-   Provide sign-off and steer on deals and negotiations, drawing on strong commercial and sector knowledge to make fast, sound calls
-   Line-manage a team of Partnerships Executives, providing day-to-day support, coaching and clear direction
-   Own broker/partner strategy and targets, and report on performance to senior leadership
-   Maintain a small number of your own key broker relationships, alongside leading the wider function
-   Work cross-functionally with underwriting, sales and operations to ensure smooth, efficient deal flow
-   Continuously improve processes for onboarding, education and ongoing engagement of brokers

**What We're Looking For**

-   Strong background in broker/introducer relationship management, ideally within SME lending, fintech or a related financial services environment
-   Sharp commercial judgment and the ability to make quick, confident decisions on deals and negotiations
-   Comfortable being the escalation point for a busy, fast-moving team
-   A track record of building trusted relationships and spotting commercial opportunities
-   High ownership, low ego, fast execution

**Bonus**: People management experience — though we're just as open to a strong individual contributor ready to step up into their first leadership role

**Our Offer**

-   A fast, focused environment where impact is immediate.
-   Full ownership and a voice in how we improve.
-   Growth opportunities with a company scaling quickly.
-   A team that values clarity, pace, and practical thinking.
-   Competitive salary and a path for progression.
-   The chance to contribute to a mission-driven company.
