We’re on a mission to back the UK’s small businesses like no one else 🚀
Small businesses are the backbone of the economy, and we’re here to help them win. We’ve built a platform that uses clever data to get them the funding they need in minutes, not weeks.

We’re a high-performing team that chooses to lift each other up. We challenge, we champion, and we have each other’s backs - because we know that when we stand together, we move faster and build better.
The impact is real: Last year alone, the businesses on our platform generated £7.2bn for the UK economy 📈 Come and join a mission that matters!

The role ⚡
📍 London (Hybrid) | 🤝 3 days in the office | 💰 Competitive Salary + Benefits
This role sits within the Second Line Credit Strategy team. We provide independent oversight of credit risk models, strategies, and the data assets that underpin them. You will own a critical piece of our data infrastructure and play a hands-on role in making sure the team can do its best analytical work.
The primary steward of the modelled datasets the Credit Risk team relies on daily: maintaining field logic, monitoring data quality, and ensuring the data as well as the dictionary remains accurate and fit for purpose.
Creating new tables and pipelines as the team’s analytical needs evolve, working to a high standard of code quality and documentation.
Proactively identify anomalies, breaks, and drift in the datamart, and investigate root causes before they affect downstream users.
Be the go-to person for data questions from analysts and model validators, and will maintain clear documentation so others can self-serve confidently.
Working closely with the central Data to align on tooling, infrastructure, and best practice, and promote those to the Credit Risk Team.
What we’re looking for 🌱
We value deep expertise, but a growth mindset and good energy are what really make our team click. We’re a group that chooses to lift each other up and think smart every day.
A degree from a numerical or data-related subject, such as Mathematics, Computer Science, Engineering, Physics, or Data Science
1–2 years of work experience, or a recent graduate with demonstrably strong data skills
Proficient in SQL, familiar with Github, and confident using Tableau to build and maintain dashboards
Comfortable working independently on ambiguous, open-ended data problems with a methodical and detail-oriented approach
A clear communicator, able to document logic and flag data issues in plain language for both technical and non-technical colleagues
Familiarity with Python, dbt, Airflow, or AWS is a plus, so is MS Office in a professional setting
Able to take ownership of redesigning departmental workflows, using AI to automate complex tasks and drive operational efficiency
Competently able to Identify high-impact AI use cases and implement advanced prompting techniques to solve multi-layered business challenges
