With pioneering tech, a diverse lending panel, and a talented team, we've revolutionised the business lending game. We bring the human touch to finance, making it accessible to Aussie SMEs and streamlining the (traditionally tedious) application process. We work with over 80 leading lenders to wow our clients with a seamless experience, from their initial enquiry through to settling funds.

Our global Enterprise technology arm provides embedded finance experience and orchestration infrastructure to enterprise clients. We pride ourselves on building and delivering category-leading tech products across the US, Australia and the UK for top-tier global businesses. We have a strong growth agenda and are always looking for top talent to join the pursuit of our vision to "unleash the economic potential of every idea"

We're looking for an experienced client-facing Program Delivery Lead to join our Enterprise technology team and take ownership of our strategic client partnerships. In this hands-on role, you'll manage the complete lifecycle of enterprise client programs, from initial onboarding through ongoing optimisation and growth. You'll serve as the trusted advisor to executives while coordinating technical delivery, and driving measurable program outcomes that demonstrate clear ROI for our partners. This is an individual contributor position where your direct impact shapes both client success and our product evolution.

About the Role

In this hands-on, individual contributor role, you will own the complete lifecycle of client programs utilising our embedded finance platform and services, serving as the primary relationship manager and delivery lead for our strategic enterprise partnerships. You'll be responsible for seamless client onboarding, product configuration, ongoing support, and driving measurable business outcomes that demonstrate clear ROI for our partners.

As the trusted advisor to executives and senior stakeholders across our client organisations, you'll navigate complex, multi-party implementations while maintaining our reputation for execution excellence. Your deep understanding of both our technology capabilities and client business models will enable you to configure solutions, coordinate technical delivery, and proactively identify opportunities that drive program growth and commercial success.

Our programs are global, so you may be working with enterprises and stakeholders across the US, Europe, Australia etc. depending on the program portfolio. You'll thrive in our dynamic environment where initiative and direct execution are valued over hierarchy, and where your individual contributions directly shape both client success and our product evolution.

This is a unique opportunity to shape the B2B embedded finance industry globally in pursuit of our vision to "unleash the economic potential of every idea"

In addition to this, you will:

• Manage end-to-end client program delivery from initial onboarding through ongoing optimisation and configuring (no-code or low-code) our platform for client-specific requirements and established workflows
• Build and maintain trusted relationships with key stakeholders across client organisations, from technical teams to executive leadership
• Coordinate cross-functional delivery by working closely with our product, engineering, and data teams to ensure seamless implementation and ongoing support
• Drive client adoption and satisfaction through proactive engagement, training, and continuous optimisation of the embedded finance experience
• Identify and pursue growth opportunities within existing programs by analysing usage data, gathering client feedback, and proposing new use cases
• Serve as the voice of the customer internally, translating client needs and market insights into actionable product roadmap recommendations
• Monitor and optimise program commercial performance by leveraging platform analytics and working with clients to maximize key business metrics
• Learn, iterate and enhance our program lifecycle approach to make each delivery better
