About Salary Finance
Working with employers, we provide a financial wellbeing platform as an employee benefit, helping employees to understand their money better, get out of debt faster and save for their future. We already have a reach of circa 4,000,000 employees through our relationships with over 500 of the largest employers in the UK.
By improving employee financial wellbeing, we have a very real and meaningful impact on people’s lives. We remove the stress and worry associated with financial difficulties by dramatically reducing the interest rates employees pay on their personal debt, and provide them with the tools needed to start saving sooner and be more financially secure. We are backed by some of the biggest brands, including investments from Blenheim Chalcot (the UK’s leading venture builder), Legal and General (the FTSE 100 insurer and asset manager), Experian and Goldman Sachs, and funding partnerships with JP Morgan and Blue Owl.
Launched in 2015, we have made excellent progress, and are scaling fast. We have been named BITC’s Responsible Business of Year, included in KPMG’s Global Fintech 100, listed top of the Forbes' list of socially-responsible startups, and profiled by the Financial Times, the Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Guardian, the Telegraph, CityAM and the Institute of Directors.
Your role in our mission
We are looking for an exceptional analyst who is eager to take true accountability of their work and evolve into an important strategic voice within the business. Sitting within the heart of the Credit Risk team, you will be responsible for dissecting and understanding our loan economics to improve company profitability while continuing to deliver excellent outcomes for our customers.
This is an influential role where you will help define our loan pricing and manage risk, whilst working closely with Data Science, Commercial and Finance teams. This position is suitable if you are looking for either a junior or mid level role.
What you'll do
You will dive straight into the data to start optimising our lending strategies.
Specifically:
- Develop and improve models across our lending channels to improve Net Present Value (NPV).
- Gain a deep, granular understanding of our loan economics, identifying the levers that drive profitability and sustainability.
- Design, implement, and monitor pricing tests across all products, analysing the results to optimise our commercial strategy.
About you
We are looking for a self-starter with a "can-do" attitude who thrives in a fast-paced, start-up environment. You should be passionate about using data to make tangible business differences.
What you’ll need to succeed:
- You have at least 6 months of experience in a data, strategy or commercial environment. This could be within Credit Risk, Data Science, Commercial Strategy, Pricing, or Marketing Analytics for example.
- You are comfortable writing complex queries to extract, manipulate, and analyse large datasets in SQL.
- You have intermediate skills in Python for data analysis, statistical modeling, or automation.
- You have a desire to build and improve tools and models rather than just maintaining existing processes.
- You are able to see the bigger picture and understand how data and credit decisions impact the P&L.
Nice to have:
- Previous experience within Financial Services or a Fintech environment.
- Specific exposure to unsecured lending, pricing, or risk modeling.
Who you are
We embrace our differences, but there’s one thing we like to share, which is our values, so it’s important to us that you are:
- Fearless, and able to make the impossible possible.
- Responsible, and want to help build a business that delivers a meaningful difference to society.
- Dedicated and want to commit to an exciting journey even through the highs and lows.
- Empathetic and truly care about every colleague and customer.
- United, because you understand we achieve more when we work as a team.
- Humble, and take feedback as a way to continuously improve.
What do you get for all your hard work?
- Company bonus scheme 💰
- 25 days holiday with an additional day off for every year of service up to 30 days and an extra day off on your birthday 🎂

- Phone call with our Talent Manager - 20 mins
- Video interview with Hiring Manager - 30 mins
- Final stage - An in-person session involving a practical Case Study and meetings with the Hiring Manager, Head of Department, and the wider team to assess cultural fit and problem-solving abilities - 2 hours
