Securatrade is a new UK platform designed to protect both tradespeople and customers during construction and home improvement work.

We help trades win more work, avoid payment chasing, and give customers confidence by securely holding funds for jobs until agreed stages are completed.

The platform is designed to make the trades industry safer, more professional, and easier to manage for everyone involved. Customers can pay securely by card or Buy Now Pay Later options, while trades can prove funds are available before starting work.

We are now looking for a driven, hands-on business development partner to help onboard our first trades and help grow the platform nationally.

This is not just a standard sales role — we are looking for someone who wants to help build something long term. Equity/share opportunities are available for the right person when milestones are achieved.

Ideal candidates will be confident speaking with tradespeople, building relationships, generating leads, and helping shape the future direction of the company. Experience in construction, trade services, SaaS, or business development would be a huge advantage.

Trade payment protection platform
Escrow-style payment system for construction jobs
Secure staged payments for tradespeople
Customer trust & payment protection services
Trade lead generation and onboarding
Buy Now Pay Later payment solutions for customers
SaaS platform subscriptions and transaction services

What type of person are you looking for:

Strong communicator
Confident on phone/video calls
Comfortable approaching tradespeople
Self-motivated and entrepreneurial
Interested in startups/business growth
Experience in sales, construction, or business development preferred
Wants long-term opportunity rather than just a job
Comfortable helping resolve issues/disputes professionally between parties

Potential earnings / structure:

Flexible structure depending on experience
Commission based initially with strong upside
Potential equity/business partnership for the right candidate
Opportunity to grow into a senior leadership role as platform expands
