This is a hands-on role for someone who knows SME lending inside out and wants to help build something from the ground up. Working closely with the VP Product, you'll be the lending domain expert in the room, the person who understands how credit products work, what SME customers need, and how to translate that into great product decisions. You'll be embedded in the product team, bringing lending expertise to shape new lending propositions, defining how credit fits into the customer journey, and ensuring that what we build is commercially sound, risk-aware, and genuinely useful for small businesses. This is a high-impact role with the opportunity to shape how our SME lending products evolve as the business scales across Europe. You’ll be working alongside a dedicated Product Manager and development team to bring new solutions to life and enhance existing products.

Conduct discovery with SME customers, internal stakeholders, and external partners to identify unmet needs and shape the product roadmap
Provide clear input into how lending mechanics such as eligibility, limits, and pricing should be represented in the product experience
Work alongside the Product Manager to create product business cases and opportunity assessments that secure leadership buy-in
Credit & Risk Thinking: Define how credit decisioning, affordability, and risk appetite should be embedded into the product, working closely with credit risk and data teams to bring this to life
Support the deployment of new risk scorecards and underwriting logic, ensuring the product experience reflects sound credit principles
Contribute to pricing frameworks, credit limit structures, and eligibility criteria that balance growth with responsible lending
Analyze in-life portfolio performance and provide insights to inform product iteration, pricing adjustments, and credit strategy
Cross-functional Execution: Act as the connective tissue between credit risk, data, engineering, and commercial teams, ensuring everyone is aligned and moving in the same direction
Lead lending related workstreams within broader product initiatives, taking ideas from discovery through delivery with minimal handholding
Support the development of business cases for new initiatives, clearly articulating the commercial opportunity, risks, and success metrics
Contribute to go-to-market planning, working with product, marketing and commercial teams to land new products effectively
Work closely with the Product Manager to support successful product delivery and ensure lending expertise is reflected throughout the development process
Market & Regulatory Awareness: Stay close to the SME lending landscape , tracking competitor moves, emerging fintech models, and shifts in the macro-economic environment
Ensure products are designed with regulatory compliance in mind, working with legal and compliance teams on FCA, CBI requirements and Consumer Duty obligations
Bring fresh thinking and external perspective to the team, regularly sharing market intelligence and product inspiration
Bring external market insights and competitive intelligence into product discussions to help shape lending strategy
Requirements:
3–5 years of experience in SME lending, credit risk, or lending strategy roles, ideally working closely with product teams
Strong working knowledge of SME credit products, business loans, merchant cash advance, credit cards, invoice finance, or similar

Analytical and data-literate
comfortable with SQL or working closely with data teams to interrogate performance and inform decisions
Experience in fintech, a challenger bank, or a fast-growth lending business is a strong plus
Domain expert first, product thinker second, you bring genuine lending knowledge and use it to make better product decisions

Collaborative and low-ego: you work well within a product team environment and alongside a Product Manager responsible for roadmap and delivery
Curious, commercially sharp, and comfortable balancing customer value with sustainable lending economics
