Key skills for this role
We’re redefining consumer lending in the UK, and beyond. Using advanced AI and Open Banking data, we make fair, affordable personal finance available to more people. While traditional lenders rely almost entirely on credit scores, we look at the full financial picture - how much you spend, and what you can afford to repay to build a deeper, more accurate understanding of each customer's unique financial situation.
And we've shown it works at scale. We’ve issued over £1.3bn in loans directly to customers while delivering market-leading credit performance - for every 10 defaults the industry expects, we see only 3. We also reached profitability just 2.5 years after launch.
Backed by £2bn+ of funding from top-tier investors including Citi, GSR Ventures, and Deutsche Bank, we’re recognised as one of Europe’s fastest-growing fintechs (Sifted, CNBC). Now, we’re expanding into new markets and product lines - and we’re looking for ambitious people who want to learn fast, take ownership, and grow with us.
We're looking for an experienced individual to fill the role of Senior Collections Advisor. This position requires an important balance of both credit and conduct risk as we focus on delivering the right outcomes for our customers based on their individual circumstances, always.
You will be working alongside as part of small but rapidly expanding team in our Milton Keynes office, this is a hybrid role requiring 3 days per week in our Milton Keynes office with flexibility on the other 2. There will also be a requirement to attend our central London office once a month (fully expensed).
The ideal candidate will have excellent attention to detail and be comfortable following documented procedures consistently ensuring that all customers are treated fairly and receive the appropriate outcomes. Tasks also include updating account details, maintaining accurate records, and escalating cases to senior staff if necessary. There will also be a requirement to identify and support customers who may shows signs of vulnerability.
