Toronto, Ontario, Canada Uncapped Full time

Remote in Toronto, Canada

Role Overview

At Uncapped, we empower visionary entrepreneurs to achieve their aspirations. The Lead Investment Strategist will play a pivotal role within our organization. You will be tasked with ensuring responsible underwriting practices throughout the credit lifecycle of our clients. Leading a team of Investment Associates and Analysts, you will assess the creditworthiness of businesses at various stages and collaborate with a team of recovery specialists to develop solutions for clients facing financial challenges. Your contributions will be vital in shaping our lending policies and comprehensive processes. In this capacity, you will make critical decisions that support the funding of numerous growing SMEs, which are essential to the global economy. Our loan portfolio is set for rapid expansion, and you will have the chance to work closely with teams across the organization to enhance and automate our underwriting processes, ensuring we maintain this growth trajectory. You will be part of a compact team and will report directly to the Investment Director, who will provide the necessary support and resources for you to influence the role and broader function.

About Uncapped

Established in 2019, Uncapped is the fastest and most cost-effective solution for scaling online businesses to finance marketing and inventory needs. The company emerged from the frustration with the limited funding options available for UK and European entrepreneurs seeking to accelerate growth.

Uncapped offers working capital loans to brands and retailers globally, generating between $10m and $100m in revenue.

Uncapped has secured venture capital funding from several prominent investors, including Lakestar, Mouro Capital, Global Founders Capital, White Star Capital, Seedcamp, and All Iron Ventures.

Responsibilities

We seek a lending authority to support the ongoing growth of the business by evaluating credit applications in line with our policy guidelines and risk appetite. The Lead Investment Strategist will:

  • Make prompt and informed decisions alongside Analysts and Associates within individual mandates by meticulously reviewing credit applications and structuring terms for eligible products.
  • Provide recommendations to the Credit Committee for decisions that exceed their individual mandates.
  • Enhance our competitive edge by refining our underwriting criteria for both existing and new product offerings.
  • Ensure the sustained performance of the loan portfolio through regular risk evaluations and monitoring.
  • Collaborate with Sales and Technology teams to continuously enhance and automate the end-to-end application process.
  • Oversee the portfolio and work closely with collections and recovery teams to ensure appropriate decisions are made for clients who are delinquent or facing financial difficulties.

Requirements

Who you are

This position is ideal for an individual with a background in SME lending, challenger banks, Venture Debt, or other innovative FinTechs. A passion for our products and an understanding of how we are transforming the funding landscape for startups will be a significant advantage. We are looking for someone with:

  • 3-5 years of experience as a Commercial/SME Underwriting team lead or as an Investment Manager.
  • Practical experience in conducting financial due diligence on large-scale business investment/lending opportunities (£1m+).
  • Strong quantitative and financial modeling capabilities in developing and maintaining complex financial models.
  • Exceptional attention to detail, with a commitment to continuous process enhancement.
  • Critical thinking and a willingness to challenge conventional approaches to problem-solving.
  • A collaborative team player who is comfortable working with others to resolve issues and drive progress.
  • Experience in recovery/collections is a plus.

Benefits

What we offer

At Uncapped, our people are the cornerstone of our success. As a startup with ambitious goals, we strive to provide our team with the benefits they truly value. We are continually expanding this list as new members join; here are some of the offerings you can expect:

  • Unlimited vacation: we believe that well-rested and satisfied individuals make the best employees.
  • Competitive compensation package.
  • Personal development fund: Elevate your skills from great to exceptional.
  • Monthly recognition and awards: Celebrate achievements, both big and small.
  • The chance to make a significant impact daily on the lives of entrepreneurs in Europe and the US.
  • Workspaces available in various locations.

We can only consider applications from candidates eligible to work in Canada without requiring visa sponsorship.
