Job Description:
Now Hiring: Bridging Operations Manager – NW England
Hybrid (after 6 months)
Shares on offer
Strong remuneration
Long-standing parent company


At KFS Recruitment, we specialise in helping bridging lenders find the best talent in the market. We’re proud to be working exclusively with an incredibly successful, long-established business in the Northwest of England as they launch a new bridging finance lending arm — and they’re looking for a Trailblazer to spearhead the journey.


This is a rare and exciting opportunity for someone with at least 10 years’ experience in bridging finance to build and shape a lender from day one. The business will be focusing on non-regulated bridging finance across the UK, with a strong appetite to lend and a clear ambition to scale rapidly.


You’ll be instrumental in everything — from setting the culture and processes, to hiring your senior team, managing investor relationships, meeting with the Group Board and helping to shape the lender’s public profile. You will have autonomy to suggest products and company direction; your voice will be heard!


The right person will also be confident representing the company at industry expos and will be a regular contributor in industry publications and media outlets to build visibility in the market.


You’ll need to bring:
A deep understanding of bridging finance, end-to-end
Experience managing funding lines
Proven leadership in building or scaling lending businesses
A long career in lending, with foundations in underwriting and credit risk, or perhaps business development (depending on whether you lean more into a COO or Sales Director role)
Excellent communication skills with investors, stakeholders, and the press
Confidence representing the business publicly and at events
A commercial mindset with an eye for sustainable profitability


This role isn’t just another job — it’s a chance to bring your own vision to life. With generous shares on the table, strong financial backing, stunning offices, potential for future hybrid working, and a forward-thinking founding partner who’s ready to collaborate, this is an exceptional leadership opportunity in the sector.
