If you’re CeMAP qualified, with excellent relationship building skills and the ability to provide outstanding service then this could be the role for you!

We are looking for a Business Development Advisors to join our Distribution team at Marsden Building Society. Reporting to the Product Manager, the Business Development Advisors will be proactive at promoting the Marsden brand with new and existing brokers.

Managing and developing business relationships for all of our partners, the successful candidates will promote our intermediary proposition and contribute to the growth of the Society’s intermediary base by demonstrating exceptional relationship building skills and commercial acumen.

With a passion for excellent customer service, the successful candidates will be comfortable assisting with case issues and liaising with Lending Services to ensure swift resolutions for our partners and prospective partners. They will be comfortable discussing, understanding and presenting lending enquiries to the Lending Manager to obtain a positive lending decision.

The Business Development Advisors will be passionate about Financial Services, demonstrating an understanding of market trends and competitor propositions. They will be versatile supporting both over the phone and in person, where required.

We are a smaller organisation, and as such, all of our colleagues all have the ability to enjoy breadth within their role, as well as utilising and developing their specialist skills. These Business Development Advisor positions are ideal opportunities for individuals who have a CeMAP qualification, or are actively working towards this, and can demonstrate exceptional relationship building skills and a desire to work collaboratively with our partners.

So what’s in it for you?

Rated outstanding for employee engagement (Best Companies 2023), we are a progressive organisation that values individuality and diversity. We are signed up to the Women in Finance Charter and are proud to have a 55% female Senior Management Team. We are an accredited Living Wage Employer and operate with purpose. In 2022 we set up our Charitable Foundation, and we are always looking for ways in which we can better support our communities.

While this role is being advertised on a full-time basis (working 5 days/35 hours per week), we acknowledge that people have different commitments, and would be happy to consider applicants on a part-time or job-share basis. Similarly, while the successful Business Development Advisors will need to attend our Head Office in Nelson for 30% of their working week, we have embraced hybrid working and aren’t restricted by geography. Hiring the right person who shares our values and demonstrates the key skills required for this role is far more important to us than rigid working patterns and where someone chooses to live.

In addition to the competitive salary on offer, we also provide an attractive suite of benefits including a generous annual leave entitlement, contributory pension scheme (with 10% employer contribution), life assurance, simply health cover, and discounted memberships.
