Regional Manager – South East

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.

Let us tell you about the opportunity

We have a rare opportunity for a Regional Manager to head up our largest region, the South East, managing a team of 8 Account Managers. The region covers the outskirts of London, Essex, Kent and the South Coast.

Our Regional Managers are primarily accountable to maximise performance in terms of sales, profitability and risk management, supporting our strategic and business objectives, whilst ensuring great customer and dealer outcomes. Whilst also coaching and motivating the sales team to perform to their full potential.

With a proactive approach to the development and acquisition of our dealer network, you will support your team to achieve commercial objectives in terms of profit, growth, risk and expenditure management to ensure that MotoNovo Finance retains a leading position in the market.

• Implementing a dealer development and acquisition strategy for your territory, maximising commercial outcomes
• Managing and motivating your team to achieve performance against agreed specific budgets

• Engage at all levels to influence, challenge and assist in the formulation of strategies to keep MotoNovo competitive and innovative.
• Proactively promote and develop MotoNovo profile, by creating and maintaining valuable relationships with major clients (existing & target).

What do we expect from you?

• Proven experience managing a territory/region
• Exceptional communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.
• Self-motivated and highly organised, with the ability to work independently and remotely.
• Strategic thinker with strong analytical skills and the ability to identify market opportunities.
