Did you know that there are at least 20m people in the UK in vulnerable financial circumstances, who are poorly served or unfairly excluded from mainstream financial services?

That’s nearly a third of all adults in the UK.

We are Fair4All Finance. We are a not-for-profit organisation working with Financial Services providers to improve the financial wellbeing of people in vulnerable circumstances by increasing access to fair, affordable and appropriate financial products and services.

We are continuing our work following our latest round of funding, and as a result we are now seeking an Associate Director to join our Commercial team.

Working at the intersection of commercial contracting, product development, and social impact, you’ll drive key initiatives to transform access to credit, insurance, and savings across the UK.

You will know your way around a contract and be adept at negotiating terms. You will also know how to dig through the ‘noise’ of a proposal to get to the real information, whilst ensuring you mitigate risk for the organisation on the schemes & pilots that you do progress.

You'll be joining a purpose-driven, high-performing team committed to long-term systemic change. If you're a commercially astute professional with a passion for improving financial inclusion, we’d love to hear from you.

· Work closely with our Propositions and Investment teams to structure deals and build investment cases for propositions.

· Represent Fair4All Finance externally with C-suite stakeholders, financial providers, and at sector events.

· Ensure sound financial and contract management; contribute to investment committee papers and internal reporting.

· Support internal knowledge sharing, deputise for senior leaders, and contribute to building a collaborative and inclusive team culture.

· Experience working alongside investment teams on capital deployment or investment structures.

· High level of numeracy and ability to build and present commercial business cases.

· Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to influence senior stakeholders.

· Detail-oriented with strong organisational and project management skills.

· A collaborative team player with self-starter mentality and the flexibility to adapt in a dynamic environment.

Desirable experience

· Experience working in or with the public sector or civil service.
