Senior Sales Manager - Car Finance

We’re on a mission to make migration easy.

We started building Marshmallow in 2017. Since then, we’ve grown from 3 to 700+ people, gained unicorn status, raised ~£140M over three funding rounds, turned profitable, insured millions of drivers and lent millions in car loans.

But we’re only just getting started. Our goal is to become one of the largest financial services providers in the world. Over the next 10 years we’ll grow exponentially, not only by scaling our existing products, but also by building new ones.

To achieve our goals we need incredibly ambitious, commercially driven people who never settle for ‘good enough’. Marshmallowers are hungry for autonomy and ownership, and would rather improve than coast. Everyone raises standards and has an impact, with a focus on collective success over self-interest.

We’ve created an environment where curious, tenacious people win and grow together. If that sounds motivating, this could be the place for you.

We are working to unlock access to fairly priced car finance for millions of migrants around the country. We are a small, ambitious tight-knit team, working independently to achieve our goals.

We are looking for a Partnerships & Sales leader to build and grow relationships with Dealers and Credit Brokers around the country. We’re building a product that we think provides a great solution for customers and dealers alike, with incredibly fast decisions and unbeatable prices, and we need someone to tell the world about it.

Reporting to the Car Finance General Manager, this role is a unique opportunity to build a key function from the ground up, mapping the industry, defining who our target market is, developing our go to market strategy, and working with the wider team to shape our product to the needs of dealers, brokers, and their customers.
