APPLY FOR THIS JOBOur Mission
At Vision Funding, we help motor dealers "be" the finance broker, enabling them to boost their sales and maximise revenue. Our cutting-edge technology gives them transparent access to all of our lending partners' finance offers, with our experienced team giving them added support when needed. By partnering with Vision, dealers can offer their customers a wider range of motor finance options, leading to better outcomes for them and their customers.
Backed by a leading Venture Capital (VC) firm with highly experienced founders, we have hugely exciting plans. Vision will grow significantly over the next couple of years as we expand our range of products and services, solving real problems for motor dealers and their customers.
Working at Vision offers a rare opportunity to be part of that exciting growth. We're looking for people who want to join our innovative, entrepreneurial culture that highly values diversity, creativity and collaboration. You'll get to play a part in influencing the company's future direction and be able to embrace the opportunities this will create for you as we scale together.
Diversity and Culture
(...because it doesn't belong at the bottom of the job advert!)
Our culture is ever-evolving and is defined by our people. We don’t hire clones, we hire individuals.
- We celebrate diversity
- We listen to our people
- We take responsibility and...
- We have fun!
We are organically growing a brilliantly diverse, inclusive and respectful bunch of people we are extremely proud of. It should go without saying but all applications are very welcome. If you need any adjustments to support you with your application, just let us know by emailing careers@visionfunding.co.uk
What You'll Be Doing
- You'll develop and manage great relationships with motor dealers who will regularly introduce customers to us.
- You'll be able to easily explain the Vision product offering and processes, creating excitement and urgency.
- You'll oversee the full sales cycle, from generating leads through to each motor dealer regularly introducing customers.
- You'll generate new leads through cold calling prospective motor dealers, as well as working with marketing qualified leads.
- You'll be the voice of the motor dealers to ensure that any necessary product improvements and features are identified and implemented.
You Should Apply If
- You're a B2B salesperson with a proven track record of success. Previous motor finance or automotive experience is a plus but not essential.
- You're a highly motivated, goal orientated individual with a passion to succeed in hitting and exceeding targets.
- You are a proactive problem solver with an eye for detail, have the mindset of a self-starter to give the very best service to all our customers.
- You’re passionate about working with and understanding customers and how our products and services can help them.
- You enjoy collaborating with other teams including product marketing, dealmaking and product development to get the very best results possible.
- You think strategically and can see beyond the day-to-day activities to understand how what you’re doing helps Vision reach its ultimate goals, increasing sales and creating a stronger brand.
- You enjoy working in a fast-paced environment (all start-ups can be scrappy at times), re-planning and reprioritising frequently to make sure we’re delivering the right work at the right time.
What's In It For You?
- Generous base salary + equity, so that you own a part of what you help build
- A 4% employer contribution to your pension (with a matching 4% employee contribution as well, or simply opt-out if you'd rather do so)
- A generous holiday policy - we expect you to take at least 25 days (plus your birthday and bank holidays, which you have the option of swapping for days of celebration that are significant to you)
- Truly flexible working - we are all in the office at least 3 days a week but we're serious about helping make work fit around life
- Plenty of snacks and drinks in the office (we'll even stock your favourites), as well as regular free lunches
- Ample free parking right by the office (you could be parked as little as 10 metres from the door)
- Free reign to contribute to the office music playlist
Interview Process
We like to keep the interview process as quick and simple as we possible can. Typically this means:
- A short (15-30 minutes) introductory call to discuss the role and make sure it's right for you
- An in-person interview which typically lasts 60-90 minutes
- That's it!
