Let us tell you a bit about us

We're one of the largest lenders in the UK used car finance market. We've specialised in motor finance for over 40 years, and are recognised as one of the best car finance providers in the industry.

We're part of the Aldermore Group, which includes Aldermore Bank plc. With our range of specialist mortgages, savings accounts and business finance solutions, we're backing more people to go for it . We thrive by saying "yes" to our customers. We respect the ingenuity of entrepreneurs and their startups; we give first-timers a leg-up onto the property ladder; we open up the lending market to many; and thousands of customers chose MotoNovo Finance every week to buy their next car, van or motorbike.

This is where you come in. We are on a journey. A journey defined by a destination; to deliver on our purpose.

The Company

We champion equality by supporting the exceptions to the rule and getting finance to where it's needed.

We lend the money people save with us, to people who want to get on in life; build businesses and create employment, buy property for people to live and work in, and purchase vehicles to move families and goods around.

Behaviour Framework

Our behavioural framework underpins our purpose and strategic drivers, as it outlines the behaviours we need to demonstrate in order to succeed. Where our strategic drivers (Stay Ahead Propositions, Relationships That Last and Progressive Platform) outline what we need to do to succeed, our behaviours guide us in how. In your second interview, we'll ask you to talk through some examples where you've demonstrated these behaviours in your previous roles.

The Benefits

As you would expect, we offer a competitive basic salary and reward package, and you'll also benefit from our commitment to investing in your professional development throughout your journey with us.
