Role
Who you are

- Proficiency in coding - ideally SQL and Python
- [Bonus] Experience in managing or mentoring analytical teams
- [Bonus] Experience in an FCA-regulated financial services firm
What the job involves
- Take ownership across a broad remit. You are trusted to make decisions that drive a material impact on the direction and success of Lendable from day 1
- Work in small teams of exceptional people, who are relentlessly resourceful to solve problems and find smarter solutions than the status quo
- Build the best technology in-house, using new data sources, machine learning and AI to make machines do the heavy lifting
- Zable is a Mobile-App first credit card that empowers customers to build their credit score while meeting their spending and borrowing needs sustainably
- We’re looking for an analytical, commercially-minded Strategy Analytics Manager to help us grow and scale the product exponentially
- This is a dynamic role where you’ll tackle high impact business problems across a number of disciplines including pricing, financial forecasting, growth, credit risk, new product development and product analytics
- You’ll work cross-functionally to deliver insight-driven strategies that optimise performance, drive responsible growth, and put the customer at the heart of decision-making
- You’ll operate in a fast-paced environment where ideas matter more than hierarchy, and execution beats bureaucracy
- Your work will directly influence who we serve, how we grow, and how we deliver sustainable value
- Drive promotions & pricing strategy: Develop and optimise promotional and pricing strategies through data-driven analysis and experimentation, balancing customer engagement, growth, price elasticity and profitability while continuously refining approaches based on product performance and scenario modelling. Build deep insight into marketing campaign and conversion funnel performance, identifying opportunities to improve cost and conversion efficiency. Stay abreast of industry trends and competitor activity to ensure our products remain fit for purpose
- Financial forecasting & portfolio analytics: Collaborate closely with the Credit Risk Analytics, Growth and Data Science teams to understand how our products and portfolio are performing at a granular sub-segment level. Define key KPIs and develop detailed monitoring to track performance against these goals, and deliver actionable recommendations to improve outcomes. Use strategic analysis to shape and influence broader business strategy
- Evaluate expansion opportunities: Navigate through ambiguity to assess the feasibility of new product, channel and segment expansion opportunities. Create robust commercial assessment frameworks, build tooling where necessary (e.g. RoI or NPV models) and extract data to support these assessments and deliver clear, insight-driven recommendations
- Influence & execution: Collaborate with stakeholders across Credit Risk, Data Science, Product and Growth to bring your strategies to life. Present insights and recommendations to senior leadership - clear, concise, and backed by data. Approach every conversation with an open mind, valuing the strength of ideas over ego or hierarchy. Ensure your implemented strategies are working as intended once deployed in production, validating outcomes and iterating as needed
- Build & mentor a small team of analysts: In time, you will hire, develop and mentor a small team of high-calibre analysts, fostering both technical growth and strategic thinking. Build a culture where people seamlessly collaborate across functions, challenge the status quo, and consistently deliver best-in-class, customer-first solutions
Salary benchmarks
Our take
Lendable competes with banks, other lenders, and consumer finance companies to make finance and credit easier to access for all consumers. Streamlining the loan application process, the company cuts personalised rates and fund transfers from days to minutes.
Lendable believes it can win in this crowded field due to its market-best customer service and strong financials. Part of its success is due to its funding coming from institutional investors. Lendable originates and services its loans on behalf of institutional investors, but doesn't hold them on its own balance sheet.
Growing insolvencies will worry all lending platforms, but Lendable looks well-placed to weather any credit storm given its substantial debt financing. With fresh funding, this profitable fintech unicorn is poised to make credit access easier for consumers. And with the launch of two new products in the US, Lendable is certainly in a good position for more growth.
