Who Are We

At Trade Funding, we’re transforming how Australian SMEs access finance. By combining deep industry expertise, unmatched product choice, and full product and provider transparency, we help businesses secure the right financial solutions - quickly, clearly, and efficiently.

Our mission is simple: empower businesses with choice, clarity, and confidence. Whether it’s tailored lending from banks, non-banks, or private debt providers, or solutions in payments and FX, we ensure finance works for SMEs - not the other way around.

We’re a fast-growing company on an exciting trajectory. We’re looking for driven professionals who want to build something meaningful, make an impact, and shape the financial services marketplace. If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!

About the Role

As a Senior Loan Manager, you’ll be at the frontline of helping Australian businesses grow by guiding owners through the lending process, matching them with the best solutions, presenting options and ensuring they get the financial support they need.

This is much more than a loan processing role - you’ll be a trusted advisor, a strategist, and a key player in the business and in our client's success. You’ll have the autonomy to manage a portfolio, build long-term client relationships, and shape the future of how we work with our valued customers.

Understand client needs deeply and match them with the most suitable lending and payment solutions.
Guide customers through our comparison models, ensuring they understand their options and feel empowered to make informed decisions.

Manage a growing customer pipeline, tracking opportunities and interactions using our CRM.
Work closely with external service providers to ensure seamless coordination and delivery of solutions.
Maintain high levels of customer satisfaction by delivering clear, tailored advice.
Contribute insights and ideas to help improve our product offerings and overall customer experience.
