We are Growth Lending. We work with innovative and high-growth SMEs, helping them to accelerate their growth by providing flexible credit and debt solutions. We provide facilities from £100,000 to £30m and have lent more than £1bn to SMEs in the UK over the last decade. We have offices across the UK, and in Cape Town, South Africa. We are now expanding internationally and know that building our own bespoke technologies is vital to our growth, so this is a truly exciting time to join.

We design, build and maintain our own proprietary platform. The platform will eventually cover the full range of business needs. It currently supports client reporting, investor portal, term loans and working capital products. We have an exciting roadmap to extend and further integrate the current functionality. Over the coming years, the scope of the system will continue to expand.

We need a skilled, driven Back-end Developer. You'll join a team building the bespoke platform that is driving forward our organisation. We design, develop and deploy maintainable and efficient systems. Taking our user requirements, we translate them into powerful, appealing interactive applications. As part of that team, you'll write well-designed, testable code in various languages. The aim is always to produce elegant and easy-to-maintain solutions.

You will report into our Lead Developer (Manila) and be a member of our in-house team. You’ll also work alongside our Product Manager and Business Analysts in Cape Town. This is a high-profile project within Growth Lending. Our business needs this portfolio of systems to power our success, so this is a great opportunity for a thoughtful, creative developer to grow in their home country within a UK-based business.

To succeed in this role, you will need to demonstrate experience of the following tech stack:

Web Framework: ASP.NET Core (essential)
Database: SQL Server
MVVM Framework: React.js
Programming Language: C#.net
Background task runner: Hangfire
ORM Framework: Entity Framework Core
Layout Grid: Twitter Bootstrap 4.5
Source Control: Git/Azure Devops
Visual Studio
Server: Azure

Strong technical capability is the basic requirement. Experience working in financial services is advantageous. Front end development experience is also beneficial. We seek someone who can work collaboratively in a geographically distributed team. You'll most enjoy this role if you strive for high quality end products, while achieving success within a cohesive team. In return we offer exceptional professional growth to everyone across Growth Lending Group through a mixture of training, coaching and mentoring. If you are interested in our thriving organisation, then speak to your recruiter or find out more about us at growthlending.com.

We do things differently. Growth Lending is no ordinary place to work. From the start we have focused on driving up diversity and inclusion in the financial services space. We strive constantly to ensure that throughout our team, at all levels, we achieve a diversity that matches the world around us and not just the sector in which we operate.

To support this aim we offer every member of the team the following:

An organisation that embraces and encourages diversity, top to bottom and end to end
Diverse recruitment panels
Enhanced parental leave policies and practices
Flexible working patterns, including working from home and fitting around the family, plus part-time positions where possible from a business perspective
Strictly monitored and enforced pay equality
One-to-one coaching and mentoring programme from a highly skilled and experienced People team
Access to high quality internal and external training
Excellent benefits and Employee Assistance Programme as standard, with additional external support when required

When we say that everyone is welcome, we can prove that we mean it. We are a highly supportive employer and we know we only get the best of the best when the only things we judge are experience, skills and aptitude. Growth Lending’s organisational culture celebrates difference and encourages individuality, so start thinking about where you fit in.
