What are the responsibilities and job description for the Solutions Consultant position at OakNorth?
A spinoff from OakNorth Bank, at OakNorth Credit Intelligence (ONCI) we are building a SaaS platform which transforms commercial lending by helping banks build deeper relationships with their clients, open new, more profitable opportunities, whilst delivering credit decisions up to ten times faster than traditional methods, with lower risk and greater efficiency.
This came as a result of our realisation that despite small and medium sized companies (SMEs) being a powerful force in the economy, many of them find it difficult to raise capital during critical stages of their company growth. Traditional commercial lending is highly rigid often making them misaligned with a company’s requirements. We aim to solve this problem at ONCI.
We’re dedicated to helping trailblazing businesses thrive and our Sales team is integral to our growth. The Solutions Consultant role is a high-impact, client-facing role focused on building strong relationships with commercial lenders and guiding them through complex decision-making processes. You will be responsible for driving new business, expanding key relationships, and ensuring ONCI is positioned as a critical partner in the financial services industry.
You will lead conversations with senior stakeholders, uncovering their needs and helping them understand how ONCI’s platform can improve their risk management and lending strategies. Working closely with leadership and product teams, you will ensure ONCI’s solutions align with client priorities and are effectively positioned in the market.
