Carmoola is a fully automated direct-to-consumer car finance lender. We have raised over £140M+ and are backed by some of the world's leading investors like QED. We are now focused on scaling the business from £10M+ to £100M in revenue.

Beyond this, you'll be a problem-solver, operational enabler, and trusted right-hand to the CEO, ensuring the company runs smoothly as we scale. If you're highly organised, proactive, and thrive in fast-moving environments, this is a unique opportunity to shape the future of a high-growth fintech startup.
