About the Company
You'll be joining a growing specialist bridging finance lender with a relationship-led approach to property funding. The business offers a collaborative environment where you'll work directly with experienced lending professionals and develop your understanding of the full loan lifecycle.
Key Responsibilities

Support the assessment of bridging finance applications, reviewing borrower information, property security, LTV calculations and proposed exit strategies.
Review valuations, credit searches and supporting documentation, identifying potential lending risks and assisting with credit recommendations.
Manage allocated cases from initial assessment through to completion, liaising with brokers, solicitors, valuers and internal teams.
Develop your underwriting knowledge across first and second charge lending while maintaining accurate credit records and supporting efficient lending decisions.

About You

Previous experience in financial services, property finance, loan processing, case management or underwriting support.
Experience reviewing financial information, loan documentation or supporting lending applications.
Exposure to bridging finance, buy-to-let, commercial mortgages or other property-backed lending would be beneficial, although previous underwriting experience is not essential.

If you're looking to move beyond loan administration and build a long-term career in specialist property finance, we'd be keen to hear from you, even if your CV isn't fully up to date.
