Our mission at MarketInvoice is to modernise the way by which businesses finance their working capital and fund their growth. We are seeking to bring much-needed innovation to the banking industry in much the same way that online retailers disrupted the high street. We offer a new kind of working capital finance, built for savvy growing businesses. Our online platform gives clients access to funds in outstanding individual invoices, otherwise tied up for between 30 to 120 days. MarketInvoice is entirely different to traditional factoring. Businesses can sign up online, sell an invoice and draw down funds on the same day. There are no contracts, hidden fees or personal guarantees. We launched in 2011 and already we've helped hundreds of growing companies overcome their fluctuating cashflow. Over £200m has been funded since we started. Our clients typically use the finance we help them to raise to launch new products, hire more staff or expand internationally. A global pool of sophisticated investors fund the invoices on the platform, and as of August 2013 the UK government began buying invoices as part of the British Business Bank initiative. We've had lots of praise in the press, both in the UK and internationally, and we're winning some big awards, including a 2014 Santander 'Breakthrough 50' award. Based in central London, you will be joining a young, multi-talented fast-growing team passionate about using technology to help businesses access funding, and changing the world of bank finance.
