Job Description
Recently named by The Times newspaper as one of the UK’s Top 20 financial technology (fintech) companies, Allica is a new bank that exists to empower established small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) to succeed, through our unique combination of modern technology, local relationships, and tailored expertise.
Established SMEs are one of the last untapped opportunities in UK banking. They are the backbone of local communities - representing about a quarter of the economy - yet have been largely left behind both by traditional high street banks and modern fintech providers.
We’ve grown rapidly and won multiple awards in our first year of trading, and you will be playing a key role as we continue to build a bank dedicated to established SMEs, at what is a crucial time for them. We believe that freedom, autonomy and trust bring the best out of people, so we work with team-players who get the importance of owning their responsibilities but know the value of collaboration. We are curious, honest and supportive.
