Closing Date 22-Jul-2026

At Metro Bank, we believe the best banking experience starts with people who genuinely care. We're not just delivering banking services - we're building trust through authentic connections. Here, our people come first; our colleagues are part of a team that values individuality, collaboration, and long-standing relationships. We are also all about balance so most of our jobs offer the opportunity for hybrid working built around your role and home life, wherever possible.

What you will do:

• Deliver our brand and business model for ABL and Corporate and Commercial Banking
• Proactively generate new ABL business from existing Metro Bank customers, via direct engagement with potential end users, and with the wider ABL advisory community, to achieve your core objectives
• Use routes to market including Metro Bank Corporate and Commercial customers, direct approaches to potential new customers and via referrals from the ABL advisory community including debt advisory, brokers, accountants, and other intermediaries to achieve objectives
• Proactively develop business, relationship build and manage pipelines, whilst building relationships with other departments such as Credit, Business Support and Relationship Management
• Make recommendations to support Metro Bank's business objectives whilst reinforcing the correct operational processes, ensuring we get things right first time for the Customer

And... we are a bank so risk is a part of everything we do. We love people who take responsibility, do the right thing for customers, colleagues and Metro Bank and have the ability to call out any concerns.

What you will need:

• Extensive knowledge of invoice finance and ABL
• Experience of delivering ABL business via your external introducer network (including accountancy firms with corporate finance and debt advisory functions, and broker networks)
• Experience interacting with businesses and customers, understanding what they do, how they do it, and their financial performance
• An inquiring mindset, with an understanding of a balance sheet, P&L and cashflows
• Have a banking or independent lender background, where you have worked in ABL (or possibly invoice finance business development)
• Be a proactive and experienced business development specialist with an active network and excellent customer relationship skills
• Understand the risks associated with your job and what that means for you, Metro Bank and all our stakeholders

Our promise to you…

• We will make sure that you are well-rewarded by providing you with a competitive salary, discretionary annual bonus, and a wide range of benefits, including generous holiday allowance, attractive pension scheme, healthcare, life assurance, and a number of colleague discounts!
• We will give you the training to ensure you succeed in your role and plenty of internal opportunities to progress your career (around 40% of our recruitment comes from internal promotions!

Important Footnote

Diverse teams really are the best teams. We know that candidates (especially women, research tells us) may be put off applying for a job unless they can tick every box. We also know that 'normal' office hours aren't always doable, and while we can't accommodate every flexible working request we are happy to be asked. So if you are excited about working with us and think you can do much of what we are looking for but aren't sure if you are 100% there yet… why not give it a whirl? Good luck!
