Account Executive – Equipment Finance
The role
Five West Financial is a nationwide commercial finance company: equipment financing, leasing, sale-leasebacks, SBA 7(a) loans and working capital, each matched to the program that fits and managed by one professional from application to funding. We are adding account executives who bring their own relationships with equipment dealers, vendors and business owners, and want a back office that closes what they originate.
What you’ll do
- Originate equipment finance and leasing transactions through relationships with equipment dealers, vendors and business owners, in your territory or your industry.
- Open new dealer and vendor accounts and set them up on a Five West vendor program, so financing becomes part of how they sell.
- Gather the application and financials, submit the file, and stay with the customer through approval, documents and funding.
- Work with our credit and operations team on structure, then present the approval options and help the customer choose the right term and structure.
- Keep a consistent pipeline: quotes, follow-ups, and deal tracking in the Vendor Portal.
What we’re looking for
- Experience in equipment finance: originating at a broker, lessor or bank, or on the finance desk of an equipment dealer.
- Self-starter: you run your own day, your own pipeline and your own follow-up.
- Positive attitude, with customers and with our team, on the deals that fund and the ones that don’t.
- Existing dealer, vendor or customer relationships are a strong plus.
- Clear on the phone and in writing; comfortable with a CRM and a quoting tool.
- Authorized to work in the United States.
Compensation & structure
- Independent contractor (1099); no base salary.
- Commission on every transaction you originate that funds, paid at funding. Uncapped.
- Commission split and territory discussed with qualified candidates.
- Set your own schedule and work from anywhere in the U.S.
What Five West provides
- Credit, documentation and funding handled by our team, so you stay in front of customers.
- A full product line to sell: equipment finance, equipment leases, sale-leasebacks, SBA 7(a) loans and working capital, for nearly every industry.
- Tools your customers and dealers can use: the Quote Builder, the online application, the Approval Builder for offers side by side, and a Vendor Portal that tracks every deal.
- A response on new applications within 1 to 2 business hours.
