With a strong market presence and an existing and established bridging product range and network, they are now in need of a Senior Relationship Manager to spearhead their development finance offering across the South-East to support their growing development product offering

About the Role

This is not just another Relationship Manager role—it’s a business-building opportunity. You’ll be in the field, meeting developers, structuring deals, and driving growth in an unrestricted South-East territory. You won’t just be reliant on brokers; you’ll develop direct relationships with property developers, leveraging your market expertise to shape and fund projects in the £5m sweet spot.

With a commission structure that sees top BDMs earning five figures per quarter, your earnings potential is £150k - £200k OTE—if you have the drive and expertise to make deals happen.

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct site visits, assess project viability, and create tailored funding solutions.
• Build strong, long-term relationships with developers and intermediaries.
• Manage the end-to-end lending process, from structuring deals to completion.
• Stay ahead of the market, identifying trends and opportunities for growth.
• Basic salary up to £90k (negotiable based on experience).
• Full autonomy to develop your own pipeline.
• New funding lines and expansion opportunities in a high-growth environment.
• Supportive, family-run business with a focus on the customer journey.

Who We’re Looking For

• Development finance expertise—you know how to structure a deal from the ground up.
• A track record of direct relationships with developers (not just broker-led business).
• Strong knowledge of the South-East property market.
• A background in development lending, property, or quantity surveying with a move into finance.
• Proactive, commercially driven, and confident in winning and structuring deals.

Why Apply?

• Own your market—you’ll have total control over your deals and pipeline.
• High earnings potential—established BDMs are making serious commission here.
• New funding lines = fresh opportunities to secure and structure great deals.
• A real say in the business—this is a lender that values your input.
• Supportive and growing—this is a lender with ambition, and they’re investing in their people.
