We’re on a mission to make migration easy. We started building Marshmallow in 2017. Since then, we’ve grown from 3 to 700+ people, gained unicorn status, raised ~£140M over three funding rounds, turned profitable, insured millions of drivers and lent millions in car loans. But we’re only just getting started. Our goal is to become one of the largest financial services providers in the world. Over the next 10 years we’ll grow exponentially, not only by scaling our existing products, but also by building new ones. To achieve our goals we need incredibly ambitious, commercially driven people who never settle for ‘good enough’. Marshmallowers are hungry for autonomy and ownership, and would rather improve than coast. Everyone raises standards and has an impact, with a focus on collective success over self-interest. We’ve created an environment where curious, tenacious people win and grow together. If that sounds motivating, this could be the place for you.

Car Finance is one of the most important growth areas for Marshmallow, and we're looking for someone who's excited to be at the heart of it: working directly with customers and partners today, while helping to build a world-class, highly automated operational engine for the future. What you'll be doing Execute the day-to-day operations of our car finance product, from handling customer queries to underwriting, ensuring a smooth, reliable experience for all stakeholders.
