Commercial Broker

Location: West Midlands | Hybrid Working

Job Type: Permanent | Full-Time

The Opportunity

GMP Worldwide is delighted to be partnering with an established and ambitious commercial finance brokerage to recruit an experienced Commercial Finance Broker.

Our client has built an excellent reputation for delivering tailored funding solutions to businesses across the UK, combining strong lender relationships with a genuinely consultative approach to commercial finance.

With an extensive network of funding partners and a commitment to providing clients with the right financial solutions, the business is looking to strengthen its team with a commercially minded, relationship-driven individual who can contribute to its continued growth.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced broker, commercial banking professional or specialist lending adviser looking to develop their career within an entrepreneurial, supportive and forward-thinking environment.

The Role

As a Commercial Finance Broker, you will be responsible for supporting businesses with their funding requirements, identifying appropriate finance solutions and managing transactions from initial enquiry through to successful completion.

Working with a broad panel of lenders, you will develop long-term relationships with clients, introducers and funding partners, providing commercially sound advice throughout the funding process.

Key responsibilities include:

• Identify, structure and arrange commercial finance solutions tailored to individual client requirements.
• Advise businesses on a range of funding products, including commercial mortgages, bridging finance, development finance, asset finance and business loans.
• Manage the complete funding lifecycle, from initial fact-find and financial assessment through to lender negotiations and completion.
• Build and maintain relationships with banks, specialist lenders, alternative funders and other financial institutions.
• Develop new business opportunities through professional introducers, existing client relationships and proactive business development.
• Establish strong relationships with accountants, solicitors, property professionals and other referral partners.
• Assess financial information, business performance, affordability and lending requirements to determine suitable funding options.
• Negotiate competitive funding terms on behalf of clients.
• Maintain accurate client records and ensure transactions are conducted in accordance with relevant regulatory and compliance requirements.
• Work collaboratively with the wider team to support business growth and deliver an exceptional client experience.

About You

We are particularly interested in speaking with individuals who have experience within commercial finance brokerage, business banking, corporate lending or specialist property finance.

You will be commercially astute, confident managing client relationships and comfortable discussing complex funding requirements with business owners and senior decision-makers.

The ideal candidate will demonstrate:

• Previous experience in commercial finance brokerage, commercial banking, specialist lending or a closely related financial services environment.
• An understanding of commercial lending products, funding structures and lender criteria.
• Strong relationship management, negotiation and communication skills.
• The ability to assess financial information and present credible funding proposals.
• A proactive approach to business development and relationship building.
• Excellent organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple live transactions.
• A genuine interest in helping businesses access appropriate funding solutions.

An established network of introducers or lender relationships would be advantageous, although this is not essential.

We would also welcome applications from experienced commercial banking professionals looking to transition into the brokerage market.

What's on Offer?

• Competitive basic salary of £45,000–£55,000 , dependent on experience.
• Uncapped commission structure , rewarding individual performance and completed transactions.
• Hybrid working, offering flexibility between home and office.
• Access to an extensive panel of lenders and specialist funding providers.
• The opportunity to work across a diverse range of commercial finance transactions.
• An established business with a strong reputation and ambitious growth plans.
• A collaborative, supportive working environment with access to experienced industry professionals.
• Genuine opportunities for professional development and career progression.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

This is an opportunity to join a business where relationships, commercial judgement and client service genuinely matter.

Rather than being restricted to a narrow product offering, you will have the opportunity to explore a broad range of funding solutions, working closely with clients to understand their businesses and deliver meaningful financial outcomes.

For someone who enjoys developing relationships, structuring deals and seeing transactions through to completion, this role offers an attractive combination of autonomy, earning potential and long-term career development.

Interested?

All enquiries and applications will be treated in the strictest confidence.
