The RoleBritish Patient Capital ("BPC") is a commercial subsidiary of British Business Bank ("BBB"). BPC's long-term vision is for more home-grown and fully funded high growth companies to fulfil their potential to be players on the global stage. Our investment programme backs venture and venture growth funds and co-invests selectively in our UK-based portfolio companies.

Working as part of a small team who are responsible for the investment and ongoing management of the BPC direct investments programme, you will be required to work across the range of activities of BPC, working with investment colleagues based in the Sheffield and London offices, and liaising with legal, risk, finance, and external advisors.

This is a small team so you must have a flexible, team-focused approach and be willing to help out across the Bank when necessary.
