Fintech

Fintech based lending has rapidly moved from being an alternative way of funding to being in the mainstream of commercial, corporate and personal lending.

Having sat on the blurred edges of finance it is now integral in how we bank, lend, borrow and consume. Subsequently, the employment opportunities in this sector are extensive and ever-changing.

Hunter Reid Recruitment Solutions have aligned ourselves with areas of this market building on synergies with our other areas of specialism.

What is considered fintech is often difficult to define  but for us, encompasses lenders that have technology at the core of their business decisioning and customer journey. This includes sectors such as commercial lending, consumer finance, retail finance, payments and cards, specialist lending, professions finance, subscription finance and insurance premium finance.

The clients we work with range from established banks through to younger disruptors and alternative lenders.

The main roles we cover in this sector are sales and business development, credit and risk, operations, support and data analytics.

Geographically we cover the UK market. Whilst London is seen as a fintech superhub, one third of fintech roles are outside London so we look to bring you opportunities right across the UK.

It is estimated that fintech lending will continue to grow by 15% per year until 2030 and so represents significant career opportunities and the market continues to look to other areas of financial services for talent.

We have seen extensive crossover from our other sectors into Fintech and also back the other way as traditional lenders also look to innovate and compete.

This is a market that continues to move rapidly. We are committed to keep pace with that innovation and change to bring you new and exciting job opportunities in the fintech space.

Whether you are already active in this sector or are interested in a fintech career, we are keen to speak to you.
