Job description

Senior Originator – REAL ESTATE FINANCE | LONDON

Up to £100k + Uncapped Commission + Benefits

Are you an experienced Real Estate Finance originator looking for greater autonomy, stronger earning potential and fewer layers of bureaucracy?

We’re working with a dynamic, institutionally backed specialist property finance lender that is continuing to grow its presence across the UK living sector and is looking to appoint an experienced Senior Originator to generate new lending across the Living sector.

Why this opportunity stands out:

• Uncapped commission – 0.10% on every completed loan
• £40m lending = £40,000 commission on top of your basic salary
• Genuine appetite and funding to write more business
• Work closely with C-suite and senior decision-makers
• Greater autonomy when structuring and progressing transactions
• Less bureaucracy and fewer layers than you may experience within a larger institution
• Significant investment in technology, marketing and BD support
• Senior position with the opportunity to influence the wider origination team and growth strategy
• Ambitious lender continuing to grow towards its next £500m lending milestone

This could be particularly attractive if you’re currently operating within a bank or larger institutional lender and feel restricted by lengthy approval processes, multiple layers of credit sign-off or limited flexibility when trying to get deals done.

We’re looking for an established originator with a strong track record across UK Real Estate Finance, relationships within the SME developer and broker market, and experience originating and structuring transactions typically between £1m–£10m+.

If you’re performing well where you are but feel you could write more business, have greater influence and be better rewarded for the lending you generate, this is well worth a conversation.

Not actively looking? That’s absolutely fine. A confidential conversation could still be worthwhile to understand how this platform compares with your current lender.
