Business Development Manager, Lender Partnerships

About CashHelm

CashHelm helps US borrowers compare loan options. Consumers looking for personal and installment loans answer a short quiz, and we match them with a network of lenders, paid per accepted lead.

We are not a lender and never promise approval. Every ad and landing page carries an APR disclosure and is reviewed against platform financial policy before launch.

We run our own media buying, our own creatives and our own platform: funnels, lender matching and the integrations behind them. The team is small and senior.

The role

We are hiring a Business Development Manager to grow our network of lenders and partners in the US.

You own the full cycle: finding and qualifying lenders, outreach, terms, legal, integration with our tech team and ongoing partner management.

You will report to the CEO and work closely with our tech, legal, finance and media buying teams.

What you'll do

• Find, qualify and prioritize new lending partners.
• Run outreach by email, LinkedIn and messengers, and follow up consistently.
• Lead intro calls and agree commercial terms: pricing model, caps, states, exclusivity, return window and payment terms.
• Coordinate NDAs and MSAs with legal and compliance.
• Coordinate technical integration with our engineers through to test traffic.
• Manage active partners: communication, metrics and invoicing with finance.
• Grow partners for additional offers on the thank-you page and test their placement.
• Attend industry conferences such as Lend360 and turn contacts into meetings.

What success looks like

Goals are set quarterly. In a typical month, a fully ramped Business Development Manager:

• Brings on 10 new lenders accepting our traffic.
• Adds 5 new thank-you page partners.
• Sends 300 first-touch messages a week.
• Takes every new partner from first contact to test traffic without losing momentum.

What you bring

• 2+ years of business development or partnerships in US lending lead generation.
• Your own network of lenders and lead buyers.
• Experience negotiating pricing, caps, states and lead return terms.
• Experience working with legal on NDAs and MSAs.
• Fluent business English.
• Based in the US and able to work US business hours.

How we work

We are a small, AI-powered team, so we hire for how people work as much as for what they have done.

• You own outcomes end to end. You take a partnership from first touch to done, without waiting to be told the next step, and you close the loop.
• You are AI-native. You use AI every day to research lenders, prep calls, draft outreach and summarize terms, and you keep looking for the next workflow to automate.
• You move fast. Same-day follow-up, quick decisions, short feedback loops.
• You are comfortable with ambiguity. Not everything is documented yet. When something is missing, you build it or flag it.
• You run on numbers. You know your results at each stage and why they moved.
• You are honest with partners. You say what is live and what is still being built, and you never oversell.
• You work well remotely. Clear written updates, reliable follow-through, no need for close supervision.
• You want feedback, and you help the people around you get better.

Nice to have

• Experience monetizing thank-you pages or offer walls.
• HubSpot.
• Understanding of API integrations and postbacks.

Why join

• A product with real traffic and revenue.
• Work directly with the CEO.
• A small senior team without bureaucracy.
• Base salary plus quarterly bonuses.
• Fully remote within the US.
