Move our mission, and your career, forward.

The Car Finance Customer Operations Team

Customer Operations is where our mission meets reality. We’re the team people turn to when they need clear answers and real support. Each interaction is a chance to make migration easier, not by following scripts, but by solving problems with empathy, clarity, and precision.

The pace is high and the challenges are unpredictable, so you’ll learn more here in a year than many do in three. We look for people who ask the right questions before jumping to answers, stay calm under pressure, and bring fresh thinking to improve how we work.

In Marshmallow Car Finance, you’ll be trusted early, supported by a tight-knit team, and given space to take ownership. With modern tools, coaching, and clear paths for development, you’ll progress quickly through the early stages of your career, while making a real difference for our customers every day.

What you’ll be doing

• Supporting our broker and dealer partners to get Hire Purchase deals completed - think chasing invoices, discussing loan limits/deposits, setting clear expectations to move deals forward
• Assessing applicant affordability and suitability using our Underwriting Guidelines, Credit Risk models and interpreting both agency credit report data and Open Banking reports
• Making decisions (with guidance initially) on who we should lend to
• Identifying areas where processes can be improved via automation and AI, and working closely with our engineering team to implement ideas
• Working with the Car Finance Ops Team Lead, GM and Head of Risk to set and track performance KPI’s, constantly challenging what ‘great’ looks like
• Actively collaborating with cross-functional teams including Engineering, Product Design and Risk, as well as wider parts of the business (Complaints, Collections) to resolve complex issues
• Providing real-time customer support via email, phone etc, ensuring effective and efficient communication - everything from welcome calls to our new customers through to setting up payment plans with customers who have missed payments
• Abandoned Basket (ABBA) conversion - turning ‘stuck’ deals into completed deals using your initiative and determination
• Adapting your ways of working quickly - processes and software change rapidly in car finance - no two days will be the same!

Who you are

• Passionate about delivering exceptional customer service.
• Adaptable and comfortable with change, thriving in a dynamic start-up environment.
• Proactive in finding solutions rather than waiting for others to act.
• Skilled at simplifying complex information for customers.
• Curious and unafraid to ask questions, there’s no such thing as a silly one and we are all on a journey of discovery.
• A strong team player who enjoys supporting colleagues and collaborating to improve processes.

• Competitive bonus scheme - designed to reward and recognise high performance 🌟
• Flexible benefits budget - £50 per month to spend on a Ben Mastercard meaning you get your own benefits budget to spend on things you want. Whether that’s subscriptions, night classes (puppy yoga, anyone?), the big shop or a forest of houseplants. Pretty much anything goes 💰
• Mental wellbeing support – Access therapy and mental health sessions through Oliva 💚
• Learning and development – Personal budgets for books and training courses to help you grow in your role. Plus 2 days a year - on us! - to further your skillset 🤓

• Initial call with one of our Talent Acquisition team
• Past experience interview with GM Car Finance

Background checks

As part of our commitment to maintaining a safe and trustworthy environment, we’ll carry out standard background checks, including a DBS and a Cifas check.
