About the role

Business Development Officer – Equipment Finance

Location: Remote – United States

Industry: Equipment Finance and Leasing

Focus: Direct Origination

Altius Search Group is conducting a confidential search for an experienced equipment finance sales professional to join a direct lender that deploys its own capital.

This opportunity offers remote flexibility, direct access to leadership and credit decision-makers, and the ability to build a book of business through borrower and referral relationships. The company provides financing for businesses whose needs may fall outside conventional bank underwriting, with transactions ranging from approximately $500,000 to $50 million.

The Opportunity

You will independently source and close equipment finance transactions, working closely with leadership and credit to move opportunities from initial discussion through funding.

The company finances essential-use equipment with durable collateral value for non-investment-grade, unrated, growth-stage, turnaround, and sponsor-backed businesses. Markets include advanced manufacturing, automation, robotics, defense technology, physical AI, and other industries with significant equipment needs.

This role is suited to a producer who values autonomy, takes a consultative approach to business development, and wants to help expand an equipment finance platform.

Responsibilities

  • Originate equipment finance loans and leases through direct borrower outreach and referral relationships.

  • Build relationships with business owners, financial executives, sponsors, and other financing referral sources.

  • Identify equipment financing needs and work with credit to develop appropriate transaction structures.

  • Coordinate with underwriting and documentation teams to move transactions through funding.

  • Build a sustainable book of business and help identify opportunities in new markets.

Qualifications

  • A proven record of independently sourcing and closing equipment finance transactions.

  • Experience financing non-investment-grade borrowers or other nontraditional credits.

  • Strong understanding of equipment finance structures, credit considerations, and collateral value.

  • Experience financing essential-use or mission-critical equipment.

  • An established professional network that can support new business development.

  • A self-directed, collaborative approach and the ability to build business through proactive outreach.

Compensation and Growth

  • Base salary of $100,000–$120,000, depending on experience.

  • Commission equal to 1% of gross funded volume.

  • Opportunity to build a team after establishing a significant and sustainable book of business.

Apply through Altius Search Group for confidential consideration.
